    Flip that Coin

     I bite my nails,
    the ball is thrown,
    I recall Rome-sweet Rome.
    For I have learned your lust
    are not gone,
    thumbs up-thumbs down,
    cheering go on.
    I don't pay to see limbs torn,
    but on it lives in a different way.
    Really a shame,how mankind
    gets off-
    Monies thrown-
    Coins tossed.
    In a world so plagued by hunger,
    and pain,
    millions-trillions,
    are shelled out each season.
    and all-
    for-
    a poker-faced games.

    You've thrown a lot of words together to stir up thought and emotion. Well done. LOL, BDC

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
