Heads or Tails

by yeehaw poems


Life holds tiny prophecies
nimble and whimsical epiphanies
like finding a penny and bending
to pick it up but falling
into the copper foil
so soluable
instead
be careful!
don't bump your head
while you meander betwixt
those mingling germies quick
or have makeshift tissues
from stuck on lint
or hatching
devious
ideas
like digging
through the plating
to discover a core of zinc
then poof back before
you can even
blink
a photograph of a penny that is discolored and corroding by yeehaw poems.
