Forever Within

Kurt Philip Behm

Religion ...

the great distraction

Redemption ...

a grand surmise

Belief

in something outward bound

His essence

— deep inside

    Kurt, this really struck me. Short, sharp, and stripped down to essentials. The poem feels like it’s peeling away layers of inherited thought until only the inner self remains standing there in silence. Powerful little piece, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
