The Joy of Certainty

A radio commercial
Made me laugh to some extent,
Though to California Psychics,
That was never their intent.

“Experience the joy,” it said,
“Of certainty!” For real?
A psychic claiming certainty
To me has no appeal.

Although, to those believers
Who give credence to this stuff,
Predictions of the future
Might be more than bogus fluff.

I don’t believe in certainty – 
The concept’s even strange – 
For even psychics can’t foresee
The ways that life can change.
