Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

The Winds Of Today

For Papa

That monster inside us
devouring the past
Our memories hunted
most recent to last

No mercy is shown us
as darkness creeps in
Today and tomorrow
—lost into the wind

(Tribute To Hemingway: January, 2024)


Lakota Buffalo Prayer

Shooting 
today
Killing 
tomorrow

Targeted
fortune
Lost
—to the wind

(The New Room: January, 2024)
