Image for the poem Only uncertainty is sure

Only uncertainty is sure

   
Einstein had said, “As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain;    
and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.”  
   
But the main idea, I have understood very soon    
Is that the truth is nowhere and all is unknown    
     
Birth    
     
Born from deep darkness    
Suddenly nude in harsh light    
Needs to love the life    
     
Religion    
     
God invisible    
Faith is helpful for people    
We live here    
     
Love    
     
You love me    
My heart burns for you    
I miss you    
     
Work in measurement    
     
Never know true length    
Determine uncertainty    
To provide results    
     
Citizen    
     
By paying my taxes    
I am a good citizen,    
And help my country    
     
Politic    
     
Be Mayor    
Of my nice city?    
Sure a dream    
     
Death    
     
Sure, all humans die  
No one knows his final hour!  
But gone! In a day!    
     
"In this world nothing can be said to be certain,      
except death and taxes", said Benjamin Franklin    
   
     
In comp "What do you know for sure?"
Just to explain for who don't have the habit of this kind of poetry, it is a septet of haikus (even they are not true haikus, I know), close to the initial form of Haiku, the raiku! But not a raiku too (my explaination don't clarify all)
