A Tale For the Times

Heads or tails tails or heads What's the difference when freedom's shred The coin's a-flipping left or right The only choice 'tween fight or flight

Interesting picture that seems spot on for the division in our country. My husband thinks we're going to have a civil war. Hopefully things won't get that bad.

For both sides to be balanced the coin would need to be on edge. Myself I am hopeful that people will start listening to each other. It is a faint hope but hope none the less.

Gershon, Yes, at the toss of a coin. The important message from the swinging of a pendulum; try not to get in it's way when it swings nearest and fastest. -Richard
