Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

Logan Pass

I’m a poet devoid
of Cliff Notes
dissection
not my thing

Don’t ask me 
to explain my words 
I’d rather hum 
and sing

Explication 
penniless
in ghettos
of the word

Where vagrants
pull and tear apart
what only should
— be heard

(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: January, 2024)

Hilda Greenhough January 28, 2024 at 8:44 PM Deep, for sure. Written word does not always last as long as spoken legends. Nice job. Kurt Philip Behm January 28, 2024 at 9:16 PM Thanks Hilda. Just for you. Kurt
