Fate Of: "babylon, the Great"

Cuatro Tetractys

Politics, circumvent, all common sense,
facsimiles,
non exist.
Raise tax
ax.
……………………………….................................
Thus,
we the
tax payers,
of common sense,
should circumvent, by our two cents, these gents!
………………………………...............................
Raise tax of wealthy, to the healthy max.
Lift up ax tax.
Stop grinding,
face of
poor!
……………………………….............................
Need us of common sense, say any more?
This be judgment,
of great whore.
They serve’ 
her!
 (C. Rev. Ch, 17&18)KJV
For. Tetractys
In Honor of: Jared Pickett

Placed #2
