Certainty’s Address
Walking to dwell
with Perhaps, Maybe
wondered if the next
step could take her
to Certainty’s address.
Would Certainty be
home and for how long
before visiting
another country again;
seeing the housed
and forlorn, listening
to argument and song
singing of dwellers
and sojourners claiming
a place to belong.
