A coin so that so different
Looking at the coin

The coin has a hole on top

Premium Member The Roman God Janus' Coin

People have two sides
Like The Roman God Janus' coin
A good side, a bad side
A past, a future
One must embrace both in
Someone we love

Sides of a Coin

Antinomy begets conflict
Decision evokes freedom
Government heeds interest
Jest kills laziness
Ends and beginnings start and finish.

Twirling
Head over heels
Sun glinting
On its edges
Dreams afloat
On riffled air

A cool see-saw descent
Of hope’s

Two Side of the Coin

When gallant men
Are called to fight
They leave behind
All they love

From Corn fields 
To Battle grounds
From hoes
To swords
And gloves 
To gantlets
And so  
A change is made

Love Is a Shining Coin

love is a shining coin.
only one,
of high or low 
denomination.

see its two sides:
what is said
and 
what is done.

spin it now and call
and we’ll find out
which side 
it’s landed on.

WHAT THE PENNY SAID

I am a penny and
I've been around
For centuries, some of
Us are worth a small fortune
Others not so much
We're being phase out
And I won't exist
Anymore, it will
Make me more valuable
One day but I don't
Want to leave

Premium Member Two Sides of a Coin

       white enclaves
          gated jails
       urban slums
          where the sun is pale

       two sides of a coin
          can’t you see 
       in the land of the grave
          and the home the rich flee

belting laughter erupts my fancy you tickle

Only One Coin To Throw In

Only one coin to throw in
But so many wishes to make
My feet ache as I walk to
The middle of nowhere, 
Wholly wanting this well
And as I cast my change
Into the hollow hole
I feel my wish is worthless
But it’s one less penny
In my pocket
