If all things in life were based
on a flip of a coin
who would make the rules?

If all things in life were based
on a flip of a coin
who would decide who tosses
and when?
in one flip you could lose
what then?
toss again?

when losing is not an option
fate resting on a dime
when all you have left are pennies
and love has become wartime

when destiny has been spent on
gambling and booze
you lose...

so if life were based
on a toss of a coin

I would decide
who flips
and when....
I win!!!

Life only gets hard when you start planning, sadly.  Or maybe just harder.
