Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

'at Bay'

Start looking outside your frame of reference
  for that which stands you alone

Stop longing for praise or high endorsement
  things only borrowed or loaned

Start feeling those words you preach unto others
   no longer idling yourself away

Stop blaming the time and the message it brings
  —for those excuses that keep you ‘at bay’ 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
