Certainty Poem by Gary Diamond

A certainty is nothing but an uncertain that was proven.
A rephrase like that could jog the mind a little.
As well as a punch in the chest could awake the killer instinct.

Mess with the formula and then problems can occur.
The jaws of victory snatching another prime time sucker.
I didn't claim there was a skill to this method
Or a reason for it to exist.

Pining and pining for a gambling loss
Will never turn it to a win.
Just got to wise up, remember the error
And roll the horse or dice again.

I've heard people curse God because he gave us plenty of choices.
I've heard and seen others die because he let them indulge their vices.
Perhaps everything that was and shall be
To this mightly Lord, a soothsayer
Nothing but a damn certainty.
Something he knew but chose not to impart.
