2 & 2 keep making 5
by Cary Lynne

Uncertainty is an unsought trophy I carry room to room
the gold of memory seems plated cheap silver at best
every belief I had of you hangs like broken balloons
draped like disease on all the furniture of my life
while in the tiniest place beaten almost to a pulp
uncertainty still begs to be delivered to any better place.

    A wonder of a poem! It leaps. It dives for cover. And, in the end, it haunts. Thanks for writing and sharing this poem. HGL
