Life is like a sock full of nickels
it’s either a wallet or a weapon
depending on how you look at it
and who or what you think is owed
When life gives you nickels
do you tally or retaliate?
When life gives you nickels
do you take a mile?
When life gives you nickels
do you return to sender?
When life gives you nickels
do you divest yourself of legal tender?
Defend the temple from the money changers
or take out a policy against the Roman empire?
Does the inevitability of the eschaton
negate the appreciation of filthy lucre?
Should you double down on your talents
or bet the house for a slice of sky pie?
Remember well the Matthew effect
Top dollar is all in who holds the highest hand
A bludgeon, a billfold, a twofold blessing
Call it up in the air
