Freewrite #8 - Coin

Oh, coin.
So many analogies.
So many correlations.
Coin, coin.
Your multiple levels and importance.
You help nourish.
You help influence.
Countries wage war in your name.
People go to jail in your honor.
Coin, coin.
You are a double-edged sword.
You have the ability to help or hurt, based on a whim.
Your value is in the eye of the beholder.
Coin, coin.
You are fawned and obsessed over, moreso than any God or religion.
You are merely a manmade creation, yet society flinches at your every move.
I see you, coin.
You are shiny and coveted, but merely a tool.
I will not let you rule over me, for there’s only one that does that.
Others see you, coin
But not the way I do.
You are not something I wish to possess as a trophy on my mantle.
You are merely a tool to spread joy and help others.
Coin, coin.
A double-blade, you are.
