Uncertainty...she is an evil bitch!
She haunts you in your sleep.
She taunts you when you are awake.
She whispers in your ear, and tells you that you are less than everyone else.
How does one silence her?!
Each time I try, she gets louder.
I scream for her to stop...cover my ears and squeeze my eyes closed.
I know she is a liar, but I still succumb.
Looking in the mirror, she is always there.
I have to find a way to stop her, before she drives me into madness!
Or, has she already taken me there?
Am I lost?

Hire Local!
Earlier this year, I was laid off from a job I held for 15 years. In that time, I progressed from a Junior DBA for a startup company to a Senior DBA (likely on the verge to take over as management) of a company created out of a divestiture of the same product by a Fortune 500 company. At the time I was laid off, 132 of my very talented co-workers were also laid off. Most of us had been with the product since it's creation.

Winner's Circle: Prompted #3
INTRODUCTION Prompted: #3 is over and done with. There were a total of 7 entries for this challenge, just like with Prompted #2. That was a bit surprising, considering this was a poetry challenge. The first poetry challenge garnered much more attention. Of course, one way to look at the drop in participation is that Vocal writers are not fans of the rondel.
