Two Sides

imagine looking at the humble penny...let it be your guide.

 TWO SIDES David Clure

 Dd   N

Two SIDES -- 
every penny has them.
But if you
only stare 
at one --
You'll never
see
the other. 

--What do you
lose,  if
you only
turn it over? 
Take a look.
Through somebody
else's eyes;
What do you
lose? if
you turn that
'penny' over?

Losing:
Racism, 
bigotry, prejudiced
warped history.
Grudges and
a hating heart,
The chance to
make a brand new
start
(time to stART losing, folks)

LOVE means
both sides
can meet as one.
So flip it over and PLEASE
put down that gun.

Two sides to every coin; good vs. bad.

I love your message in this poem. Take the them versus us syndrome out of life and makes it overly us. After all, that's what we are people without borders or classes. Just people. All trying to make our lives better.
