penny arcade

life is a penny arcade
where you drop your dirty copper moments
trace moments
into the slot of chance
and seize the handles,
waiting for the raw shock
that challenges your will
and tests your desire to win
nothing more than bragging rights

then you
step right up
to the next machine
the metaphor
with more neon
and a sign that reads
"Try Your Luck
Two Cents"
and grab the handles

Dirty copper moments -- nice imagery, that.
