Hawks Into Doves Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Hawks Into Doves



Why do I like things
I can't agree with

Why do I listen
when I don't want to hear

Why am I attracted
to things that repel me

Why are my reasons
more muddled than clear

Why do I often
begin at the ending

Why do I hurt
the people I love

Why are my questions
confused by my answers

Why do my hawks
—always turn into doves
