a man's not certain

a man's not certain till he learns the dance
of all the magics known to human folk
that is the least accessible to chance

secrets of science secrets of finance
on these the normal mind will rarely choke
a man's not certain till he learns the dance

not much is visible to the first glance
but everyone reacts to a sharp poke
that is the least accessible to chance

we look straightforward and never askance
no sights there are our vision to evoke
a man's not certain till he learns the dance

the world swift narrows from a broad expanse
and it's not hard to hear a distant croak
that is the least accessible to chance

we think of magic as some vague romance
told by a mountebank just one more joke
a man's not certain till he learn's the dance
that is the least accessible to chance

(C)2008, Fragano Ledgister
