Our Uncertainty

Location

Were born empty a clean slate

Only to be carved into and filled

With knowledge of the world

Knowledge that holds many things

 

But what if too much is birthed

What is to for come the overflow?

Confusion rises from the chaos like smoke

Simmering to soft embers of uncertainty

 

What is uncertainty?

Is it to know so much?

Or to no just enough

Maybe too little

 

Uncertainty is key

A key that leads to new doors

For what are we to find

From Alps to the Appalachians

 

Are we to wonder pondering of ourselves?

Or of others that gaze upon ourselves

Questioning our thoughts

Questioning our laws

 

If no questions arise of our selves

Are we to follow blind like sheep?

Walking to our doom of hungry wolves

Or are we to stand and wonder beyond

 

Beyond over yonder

Which way to ponder

Here there near or far

Pondering is a minds journey

 

Uncertainty is key

The key to either our extinction

The key to our prosperity

Uncertainty leads to a decision

 

Uncertainty is key

The key of our decisions
