Made of Doubt – Written Tuesday 13th January 2026 (Aged 50)

Made of Doubt

I am made of doubt
and…
not knowing,
and…
places where it feels like
it is always snowing.
I never quite settle
on the trapeze,
and life seems to battle
a looming freeze.
I am made of ideas —
ones that never quite settle.
I am hung up
on roughly pounded metal,
and I am never sure
of the situation
or the developing future.
I am made of doubt
and the raw ingredients
of never knowing.
Catch me though,
because feelings are ever flowing.
