religious
political
cultural
celebrity

it is the total
devotion

to a cause or
a person

that confuses me

how does that
not eliminate

a mind from
the equation

change is always

and certainty is
a bottomless pit

(perhaps it is hell)

or what they
describe as

damnation

the more certain
a person is

the more I doubt
them

I believe in
humble optimism

wanting the best
but believing

everything
is at least a
little wrong
