Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

My Crutch

I’ve written over a thousand Poems,
in search of just that one

Each word to slay the demon time,
each phrase my soul respun 

I’ve come so close a hundred nights,
to see but not to touch

Then left to limp between the lines
—their failure now my crutch

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)
