The Moment Demands Poem by Kurt Philip Behm
The Moment Demands
Rating: ★5.0
In a distended reality
the Buddhists were right,
but pointed they were wrong
A metaphor chosen
to soothe and delight,
but our choices a different song
Transcendent revelation
a spiritual ideal,
as today takes its pound of flesh
The totality of being
the noblest of causes
—when the moment demands no less
