Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

Letting Go

You can’t beat fate
with the stars in alignment
You can’t beat fate
all your ducks in a row
You can’t beat fate
with your words in confinement
You can’t beat fate
—till you let it all go

(Dreamsleep: March, 2023)

Daniel Turner March 22, 2023 at 10:08 AM I write about fate in my poems but I really don't believe in it, I'm not sure it could be done since those 3 sisters plan out your entire life. I am certain you will let me know:) Kurt Philip Behm March 22, 2023 at 10:23 AM One of my favorite mountain towns in Oregon is called 3 Sisters. That was my point, letting go of the concept (like many strictures and concepts) sets you free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Sisters_(Oregon)
