One of Life’s indisputable facts:
Government reserves the right to tax;
And tho’ they waste far more than they should,
It’s supposedly done “for the common good.”

If you are angry with me 
Or with anyone or everyone
For some (in-)explicable reasons,

Our children must not die
before their parents
or parental dreams die with them.

Splashed with palest yellows -
And dappled with many differing 
Limes
Throughout this variegated Theme;
