Our deep human yearning for certainty
Our deep craving to know
Our deep need for agency
Can all lead us
To great places
And great creativity
Spawning deep musings
Wonderful art
And beautiful acts of community
But they can also lead us
Down dark paths
Of arrogance
Of hatred
And of force
Ways that are most harmful
The desire is real
It will set us off
to travel down those paths
It is only clinging
That can lead us astray
Part of being human
Is learning to live with
And dance within
The spaces of uncertainty
For there will always be some
And that’s ok
