Living in the shadow
of a man now gone
Darkness my betrayal
— shades of future past

(Dreamsleep: October, 2024)
Kurt Philip Behm Oct 2024
Life’s secret
is in the balance
where happiness
— rests

(Dreamsleep: October, 2024)

Philosophy ...
a preparation
for death

Groundwork
of ascension
— footnote of goodbye

(Dreamsleep: September, 2024)
Kurt Philip Behm Oct 2024
Death
the ultimate
release
Freedom’s
Déjà vu  

Questions
answers
join as one
Prescience
— shining through

Outside the mind
they’re no universals
Conflation and trend
— humanity’s bane

(Dreamsleep: October, 2024)
Kurt Philip Behm Oct 2024
“If you spend half your time
trying to change human nature
You’ll spend the other half
being disappointed”

If you spend half your time
waiting for someone to love
You’ll spend the other half
waiting to die

If you spend half your time
questioning the truth in the answers
You’ll spend the other half
missing the point

If you spend half your time
following the tracks of another
You’ll spend the other half
— wondering why

No longer a teacher
a programmer ...
your gift to persuade
is gone

Referring to students
as charges and dolts
your power to control
is strong

To dictate
humanity
you must give up your own
controlled to then control

Blind to the moment
deaf to the past
defaming your nature
— killing your soul
