A Penny for Your Head's Tales

{Duff,
for showing us the raw craziness of Kitchener,
with honesty we can't always handle
but need to know
as we hear your stories,
walk with you,
eat with you,
pass along the lucky pennies you pick up off the ground
and the stories you share while sharing the best breakfast in town.
Danke Shon.

A Penny for Your Head's Tales

If it’s tales,
    pass it on;
if it’s heads,
    keep it.
Here
    Lucky lady,
         pick it up.
Tales... pass them on.
    Tales of the heads and hands
         that pass, grip, toss or
    flip over to
         test their worth,
              their luck,
                              to eat, or not to eat?
                                                               Flip a coin.
Feed your head -
    it’s free -
    doesn’t cost a cent;
          only street sense.
When you toss that worthy trash -  
         another Unlucky’s treasure
              taken from a tip jar
              and traded for a tip from me to you -
         don’t toss me away too...
    Not worth a cent.
    Take it or leave it.
Here
    Lucky lady...
         Tales,
              pass them on.
