Tax Thought

Tax time again, again, again Anxious crunching of the days Xenogenous shaking of the brain Empty checkbooks, delays Severing theory from truth. Income diminished by rising cost Severe dislocation of expectations Undistributed wealth, profits unshared National bills unpaid by the very rich Justice forgotten in broken schools Undeveloped communities, and roads Statistics say wars get the lion's share The tenor of egos, and representation wares.
