A Higher Enchantment Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

A Higher Enchantment



Is there anything language
can't possibly express

Words falling short,
all speech in distress

Are there concepts so deep,
they cannot be described

To experience beyond
any speaker or scribe

A higher enchantment,
a deeper enthrall

The logic of which
is bereft to recall

Expression in handcuffs,
perception moves on

Searching the cosmos
—its melody strong
