All Time Is Now

Kurt Philip Behm

Release the hasp
Pull back the mask
The key has turned
Your face to learn

Unlatch the lid
Reach down amid
What’s hidden deep
—your secret sleeps

Confront the lie
The souls new stye
Wash clean the pain
With loves refrain

Commit your faith
In God remake
The time is now
—all time is now
