Things Mortal Still Mutable

Things are uncertain; and the more we get,
The more on icy pavements we are set.

Pavements

there are traces on the pavements
there are eyes on the pavements
sadly looking at us
pavements are like history on strata and decaying leaves
there are booksful of words on the pavements
on the pavements
there are faces
ı haVE BEEN ACquı Nted with
looking at me lonely and sadly
the pavements look as they have come from above
and constructed there
on the pavements
there are many memories carved
there are lonely traces on the pavements
there are eyes on the pavements
we tread on
ı have acquinted with... faces look at me sadly and lonely
the pavements must have drunk from various waters
from many sourCes and fountains
who guesses who passed and gone on this pavements?
there are traces on the pavements
there are faces on the pavements
looking at me..lonely and sadly
when ı walk
and stroll on them lonely and slowly and slowly

Life Is Uncertain- And Because Of This

LIFE IS UNCERTAIN

Life is uncertain-
And because of this we live in anxiety and fear-

The strong shape the future as best they can
But even they cannot overcome all Time and Circumstance-

Life is uncertain-

Writing a poem is not knowing where it will end
Or the way a line should be stressed
Or whether it’s writer is right to write this now.

Life is uncertain
In the smallest and in the greatest things-

Our life our death-
What will be with our loved ones-

If some of us pray to God so strongly
It is also because we need help with that uncertainty –

Lonely as we are
Afraid as we are
Uncertain as we are-

We pray to God
To help us make our way wisely
In this uncertain world.

You know, people talk about this being an uncertain time. You know, all time is uncertain. I mean, it was uncertain back in - in 2007, we just didn't know it was uncertain. It was - uncertain on September 10th, 2001. It was uncertain on October 18th, 1987, you just didn't know it.

Uncertain Is A Hand To Destiny

uncertain is a hand to success
uncertain is a hand to lottery
uncertain is a hand to richness
uncertain is a hand to luck
uncertain is a hand to certainty of impermanence
wow! life is a bridge to uncertainty to oneness(+ and -)

Uncertain Sea

If your tide goes sweeping out to sea
Let it be- do not despair -nor cast lament
Let not imagination conjure rip and rent

For this may be- this journey on uncertain sea

A journey of things never imagined-grand
More exhilarating than things thus planned

Your adventure not planed but free- all upon the uncertain sea

Uncertain

You tell me to find another.
The tone of your words say your uncertain.
The look you give as you say this,
tells me of your vaugeness.

I'm uncertain of why you do this.
When you know what there is between us.
Yet you choose the seperation.
I curse this uncertain turn of loneliness.

Is it because you're scared of what's so blatant?
The love we feel. Is it far too real?
You tell a lie, and then deny.
What I feel you hide inside.

I should believe the words you said.
Then I look and just see dread.
That your heart will never mend.
If we were and it ends.

I'm so uncertain of this truth.
When will reality break on through?
I hope you realize there's no better.
You're the sweetest woman since my mother.
I've seen them all, I've had a few.
All I really want is you.

It's so uncertain.
I may never know.
If you love me just tell me so.

I started noticing how stained the pavements are in London. The pavements in Beverly Hills aren't used; in London, they're used for everything. It doesn't matter how much they're cleaned, they still reflect light.

Seems Uncertain

It seems uncertain
I wish it was forgone
To know the version
That made life go wrong
Wish I had a clue
What rearranged our molecules
Mostly wondering
It seems uncertain
In times of trouble
Everyone joins a team
No one waves a flag
For all human beings
No ones excited
Unless they are divided
Someones going to have to give in
It seems uncertain
Id like to be
One of the faithful millions
But what I see
Is an excuse for the killing
Your denomination
Should be a private thing
How about a spirit
For all human beings
How could something well guided
Turn out to be divisive
Mostly wondering
It seems uncertain

Bitterly

Bitterly,
I walk away from a crying place
Where everyone seems uncertain
About where to go from here
Head down,
I wait without talking to her
It seems we're in different worlds
And maybe we are
But I hide who I really am
Bitterly,
I pray that this won't repeat
Nothing is what it seems, life lesson
Bitterly,
I walk away from a crying place
Where everyone seems uncertain
About where to go from here
Bitterly,
I walk away from a crying place
Where everyone seems uncertain
About where to go from here
Bitterly,
I walk away from a crying place
Where everyone seems uncertain
About who I am

Uncertain lease—develops lustre

Uncertain lease—develops lustre
On Time
Uncertain Grasp, appreciation
Of Sum—

The shorter Fate—is oftener the chiefest
Because
Inheritors upon a tenure
Prize—

Crimson of Fear

Invisible but not voiceless,

This fire within me burning;

Fueled by things long since done;

Uncertain it would continue

And most certainly would one day end.

Resounding vermillion trains,

Travelling across frontier lands;

That began by fits and starts.

But this is just the beginning,

And most certainly is not the end.

Smearing the silence with my thoughts:

Scarlet ink on blue paper;

Conversing along the lines;

Uncertain it would continue,

And most certainly would one day end.

Slumbering souls awaken,

Speaking to us on paper;

Streaking sheets with stunning stains.

But this is not the beginning,

And most certainly is not the end.

Pavements of time.

I walk this concrete jungle
On pavements, paved and cracked
So many also passed this way
leaving hidden unseen tracks

Lives untouched have crossed my path
Locked within their frame of time
Yet every action on this earth
Could affect both yours and mine

If contact made, or time delayed
May change the course of lives
Insignificant little incidents
Affecting actions uncontrived

Yet time and nature stumble on
In apparent ignorant bliss
To change the world around us
On pavements such as this.

Leaving the Long Ago Gone

Woke up uncertain...this morning
in everything
Was high without trying
stacking round peg
stacking square
going nowhere...

Drove to work but I wasn't there
tried to be myself
even if it's someone
I don't like

Caught enough recollections
to recall
just enough to get by
just enough to pass...bye

Went to bed uncertain this eve...
want to say in everything...
but I'm not certain.

Every economy is uncertain. Referring to this or any economy as ""uncertain"" is an unnecessary and pessimistic redundancy.

Lady Uncertain

Here with your loving eyes as they stare
Soundless words your mouth doesn't perform
Seeing you stand there all but a smile
Bitter you are because of your form
Your so unsure of what will be
As you lay your head down to sleep
Lady Uncertain
You dream of love in a different way
Yet you know not much about it
Those affections you give are golden
But so confused you refuse to admit
Open your eyes and take a look see
Your fairytale is way too deep
Lady Uncertain
Give you love and let that be
Your world and mine clash all together
Your warm, delightful and tender
My thoughts are nothing lasts forever
Lady Uncertain

There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.
