Your Soul's Release Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Can a phrase rule
over a paragraph

Can the right word
stand alone

Can a thought be held
within one breath

Can the truth in short
be known

Can you single out
the future

Can you paraphrase
the past

Can you release the hope
inside a wish

Can you make this moment
last

Can you keep the magic,
the spell unbound

Can Apollo set you
free

Can you say it while
defying time

Can you voice your souls
release
