not déjà vu

Sometimes I know things before they happen. Or before I should know they have happened.

What do you call that? Prophecy? Second sight? Time travel?

I knew the phone would ring. I knew it would be her, the neighbor.

I knew one of our windshields would crack soon, then you sent me that picture.

I knew when you lied to me, even before I discovered the evidence.

What can I do with an inconsistent gift such as this? Does it have a purpose? Am I learning to trust it now because it will be important later?

Intuition isn't a strong enough word.
