What Will Be Your Last Call

David Smith

As you flip the old worn coin
Is it heads or tales you seek
But you won't find out
Til it hits the palm of your hand
Or better yet lays flat on the ground

So while this old coin
Is sailing up
 Not so high in the air
You better make your mind up
What will be your last call.
