Anonymous
When programs list the donors
Who’ve sent money for a cause,
There’s always someone mentioned
Whose identity gives pause.
The name, you see’s, Anonymous,
But why, I’ll never know.
This person’s generosity
Appears to overflow.
So what’s up with the secrecy?
The label under wraps?
A ploy to fool the I.R.S.
Or relatives, perhaps?
For when I see Anonymous,
A question is implied.
The answer to us peons, though,
Has never been supplied.
If I could donate megabucks,
I’d certainly be proud
And hope my name’d be written in
The largest print allowed!
