Two sides of one coin


Two separate emblems
a tail and a head,
but when on paper,
only one word is read.

The coin is the same
regardless of side
and neither is greater
but balanced in-tide.

Each side is quite different
that is plain to see,
with good things and bad things
each to the same degree.

And so they are even
and one must now choose,
which bad thing is lesser
or which good thing to lose.
