“Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.” Voltaire
All In A Second Doubt, that husk building woodworm who creeps carefully under my glittering self-sureness, taking its time, waiting for the right moment to slot into my thought train, leaving me in a gently unsettled anaesthesia, disoriented, and without a map, all in second, until the winds of reasoned calm push aside the shadows letting the sun in once again.

“husk building woodworm” what a great image. My doubt is first to the gate – not quite so slow to react.
