To Defy

by Kurt Philip Behm

Beyond comparison,

they rise when we fall

Uniquely divergent,

to impale and enthrall

No reference or genre,

descriptions confound

Bowie and Jagger

—alone in the crowd

Unique, intriguing and unusual- but pleasantly so... These are the words that come to mind in describing this poem. You've a style all your own, I like the rhymes and "different" subject matter.
