Probability

I dread doubtful probability

Imagine hostility

Distrust the stability

Of the firmly established

 

I lack simple humility

Scoff at adaptability

Then put on fragility

At the mention of what’s past

 

Anxiety with irrepressibility

Convincing me of the futility

And lack of viability

Of my propensity for change

 

I search for tranquility

Make a break from puerility

And claim responsibility

For the ways I walk the earth
