Oh, the uncertainty of it all!

Interesting prompts today.  (I think.)

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle
The March Challenge suggested we reflect on uncertainty. (Maybe?)  Sunday Scribblings was all about nearly. (Almost?)  And One Single Impression was kinda sorta hollow.  (Perhaps.) 

As you can see, I'm a bit unsure, but anyway, here are the words...

The trouble with the world is that the stupid are so confident while the intelligent are full of doubt. ~Bertrand Russell

Hollow confidence
is the realm of the stupid.
At least, I think so.

(Nearly) Famous

I’m (nearly) famous!
Check me out.
From coast to coast
there is no doubt
I’m quite well-known
(in certain spheres.)
That’s how it goes
with ‘penned’ careers.

The Uncertainty of a Shooting Star

For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream. ~Vincent Van Gogh

I look to the stars,
too deep perchance to dream…
I dream, anyway.
