          By ... Steve Lucky

The destructive power of doubt is great
Provoking the more destructive power of hate.
It gets in the way when help is required.
One can not always afford help that is hired.
If one forsees a future disaster,
Doubt should never be the master.
Time is needed for one to act.
Asking for proof may cause one to retract.
When countless lives are at risk,
Reaction to it needs to be brisk.
Proof is not always easily found,
But help is always good to have around.
When information is not clear,
To clarify it one needs to be near
The source of the unclear information.
It takes much study for clarification.
Fraudulent people will always be out,
But it can not be solved with doubt.
