1967 Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

1967

Swallowing
lightning
Teasing
the bear
Dharmic
illusions
Circling
a square

Trapping
a rainbow
Embracing
the clowns
Rewriting
language
Up
getting down

Stripping
the moment
Wishes
that fly
Summer
of love
Timeless
goodbyes

Alice
returning
Virtuous
sin
Lost
in the rhythms
Buried
—within
