  1. Penny..face up or face down. Cliche. Decisions, luck. Small change. An identity. All that glitters is not..
    Gold. A penny. A profile. A history. A story. A penny. A life.

  2. penny is a type of money that is worth one cent and if you have 100 of them you will have one dollar. I think that pennies should become obsolete. No one ever uses them. I have a stack of them collecting on my dresser, only waiting to be redeemed for actual, useful cents and dollars.

  4. Lucky penny you aren’t as luck as i thought. Not only have I completely forgot about you and my life carries on the same
    but I have forgotten about your whole family.
    Each one of your brothers and sisters i find and pick up end up lost in the world. Never to be used, just to speckle the world.

  7. I have a shiny copper penny. I found it on the ground and put it in my penny loafer. now i need to find another penny for the other penny loafer. I hope they’re both very shiny. When I find a penny that is tails up, I flip it so that it’s heads up so someone else can have good luck.

  9. a penny saved is a penny earned
    problem: since when is so little
    suddenly something worth looking at?
    I thought we measured things in dollars.
    I know I do…Indeed, I now measure things
    in fives or such, with the ones
    as backups for when I need something.

  10. It’s such a small item. Worth so little, this penny in my palm. But it was in his hand. He smirked and said with a fake excitement, “WANNA PRESENT? You’ll be riiiiich,” and then tossed it at me without realizing what he was doing. He has to know. After all the times we’ve watched Animal Planet, all those times we kissed, all those times we didn’t go well together.

  11. i found a penny on the sidewalk. i walked over and picked it up. it was old and had green on it. it had seen a lot. i wonder how many hands had held that penny. i wonder how many events that penny had seen in its long life. i put that penny in my pocket and forgot about it. i went to get it out and realized i accidently spend it..

  12. Is a like part of money?

    It’s good… we like it.

    They’re useless when you have only one, though people still pick them up off the street. In the end they can accumulate to about $30 or $40.

  13. Put the penny in the slot and watch the lights begin to blink and you wait patiently for the game to begin. You hope you’re a winner.

  14. How insignificant, how minuscule, a penny.

    Worth more than it’s value.

    Perhaps these days, people should appreciate the little things in life more, rather than depreciate what it could be.

  15. A penny is shiny. It can buy you very little, but yet it could potentially buy you a lot. Abraham Lincoln is the face on the penny. It is a copper color, and Nick is ugly.

  16. It was on the ground. I wanted to pick it up because as the saying goes, every penny saved is a penny earned. But then again, it was only a penny. And who knows what shoes had already stepped on it before my hands touched it. Also, it seemed to be one of those old editions: minted before the new mints had arrived, printing shiny glossy pennies. But boy oh boy did it look tempting. I guess that’s what poverty does to you.

  17. The penny shone in the candlelight, bronze and shiny and perfectly round. Then it disappeared into the girl’s sweaty palm. Into her dingy pocket. And then through the door, into the darkness. I sighed and blew out the candle.

  18. This morning I was getting ready to leave for the day. I saw a penny on my floor as i as fixing my rug. I was going to put the rug over the penny but my superstition prevented it. I put it in my pocket. I have to say that my day was filled with luck because of that penny.

  19. iron tasting like a period. gritty full of dirt. Useless. Falling out of my pocket and I don’t pick it up.

    Penny such a name as you find in the burbs. Or a pomo girl.

  28. “Wheat” pennies? Yo, back in my day they were hell of ubiquitous. You see em once in a blue moon nowadays. If you find one, do not eat it; wheat pennies are very stale, and there is no actual wheat in them.

  29. The penny is the smallest amount of currency in the american economic system which in the current day and age is being run into the ground by the very people who run it. and ironically the face on the penny is abraham lincoln who aggressively disagreed with large vo

  30. what the ufck penny what a lame ass word. i never pick up pennies because i always think the next person probably needs it more than me, so i let them have it. my mom told me pennies are a gift from angels so i’m technically an angel to someone else. my friend told me she never picks up pennies if the head is up. what a lame ass. i never pick up pennies at all.

  31. It was brass-colored, and glimmered like sunlight that dances on a pond. It brought immeasurable joy to the young six-year old’s face, though it was only a penny.

  34. i saw a penny and picked it up. It was a very dirty penny from 1956. I thought to myself, where had this penny been? Who had held this? Used this? Paid for something with this? Questions are endless. A penny is forever. I’m drawing a blank ha.

  35. Like an angel sent from the heavens, I drowned into her beauty. Her blonde hair dripped into my vision as the slippery assult she displayed upon on my lips had me weak in the knees. I firmly grasped her arm and lower back to fit her into the curve of my body. Her fingers were latched into my hair, pulling me down with her into the couch. As we landed, gravity ripped us apart for a split second. She fitted into me perfectly. “Oh Penny…” I whispered, as she attacked my neck with her perfectly belladonna lips, nipping between pressured kisses.

  36. Once I found a penny on the sidewalk. I remembered what my older sister had told me, “A penny with the face up, is lucky.” I had always believed this. I looked at the penny, it was sadly faced down. I was about to walk away when I got the idea to challenge her. I picked up the penny, and ended up having the best day ever.

  37. I saw a penny one day. It was shiny and golden and i knew it was lucky. I couldn’t stand to see such a wonderful thing go to waste, so i picked it up. What I saw, I almost couldn’t comprehend. The little lincoln face looked up at me and winked. He said “you’re the only person who wasnt afraid to touch me. Thank god your not a germaphobe like the rest of the world. Then he turned into a check for a billion dollars, from: GOD.

  38. penny lane. i think of the beatles and the all the magic and mystery they spread across the world. the idea of love and prosperity for all is central to my core of belief. i love the message the beatles convey. they uplift my heart and reassure me that im not the only one who understands what life sort of means…
