Unquestioned Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Can imagination be taught,
or intuition defined

Can wishes be repackaged
as hope

Can children rekindle
a dream never fired

Can the past and future
reverse

Can what is and what isn't,
forever be

Can a savior fall victim
to faith

Can tomorrow choose the past
over today

Can the reasoned excuse
die from intent

Can the moment once noted,
forever last

Can there be language
with vision denied

Can the wisdom of sages,
in playpens be found

Can the answers unquestion
—themselves
