The Line Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

The Line



Conduit of the human spirit
I forced hope into the cord
Draining the tears of
The lost and abandoned
Plugging into outlets
Of forgotten promise
Forcing their light
Onto the dark barren screen
Charging into what
I had charged over before
—crossing the line
—crossing the line
