Spin A Coin


Spin a coin, spin a coin.

Heads or tails?

One finds prosperity

The other, death hails.

 

Spin a coin, spin a coin.

No or yes?

Some will be famed,

Others suppressed.

 

Spin a coin, spin a coin.

Life or death?

Blood soaks the streets

As we fight for breath.

 

Spin a coin, spin a coin.

All fall down.

Eidolons of past selves

Stalk through the town.

 

Spin a coin, spin a coin.

Heads or tails?

One finds prosperity

The other, death hails.
