The Formless Question Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

The Formless Question

Rating: 5.0


Is beauty connected,
or to a vacuum condemned

Is truth then required,
for it to enter within

Can beauty be measured,
by the heart or the mind

Can it chase, or displace, or replace
what it finds

If beauty is truth,
let all reason be shown

Why judgment and logic,
to our hearts stay unknown

As semantics untangle,
and the linguists all kneel

The question stays formless
—to astound and congeal

beauty, truth, judgement- all are sometimes corrupted by our emotions and left the wings of pragmatical sense.....//// praiseworthy writings
