In the bonds of peace
are released sweetness
that are anger release
touches her peace
making a sour begins...
a sweetness apologize
Solely to myself for myself
by myself
I analyze while I'm why ?
why I stutter the thought
of being distraught
and Gathering all the
monies in sack coth
I'm being spiritual enriched
Enriched 100 fold blessed

My name is The Law.
My face is stern
Toward transgressors,
But I can use
The fines they pay
Dropping into the coffers!

All along I knew
This was the avenue
For raising the revenue
That should drop something new
To our now cheeky masses
Branding us all ‘Asses!’
Our courageous journey ‘Aimless’
Mr. President ‘Shameless’
And the former Government ‘Blameless’…
Now, the exact moment
To reply to their comment ,
Which has been acidic
But with a move strategic …
Magically showing the acidic helpful
Through a delivery of the needful…
It’s an opportunity to not waste,
So that consoling victory we taste!

Flowers bloom to the fullest,
Garden of colours and aroma;
Fresh turf covering at full stretch,
A pleasant place for my mama.
A heart that lacks blooming, like mine,
Colours shall fade and perfumes evaporated;
Like dried and wasted grass, that’s how I feel,
Mama’s death came and it wasn’t anticipated.
Clear sky overpowered by the blazing sun,
No clouds to dampen the beautiful day;
A flock of birds happily racing each other,
Children enjoying a recreational play.
The blazing sun hurting my tired head,
Wishing for some rain clouds to appear;
Like the birds in a cage, I feel frustrated,
My recreational time fills me with dark fear.
The calming sea welcoming swimmers,
Speedboats abusing its power of speed;
Surfers annoyed at the lack of waves,
Topless sunbathers are carefree indeed.
In life, I swim in an ocean of sorrows,
Like boats in a storm I roll out of control;
Annoying is the lack of love in my heart,
A body without substance and without the soul.

All together, I have a system a systemic.
Expertise, Ace of Clubs
Ace of Hearts
General Splinters, a heavy heart.
A poem piece for sustained life
I feel hot, yet the air is snowwy.
Neutron amiga trouble asides
X-files on complete crack
Reality analysis
With no facts.

RING RING...Hello IRS ...
What's your take on a dependant child?
My boys 40, ain't worked in a while!
I got 8 more kids inside da house,
the boys bride and my second spouse.
First ran off with a traveling man,
Raised her kids, best I can
Calling to ask if this is true?
Lost my job!..... Can I.O.U.?

Internal Revenue Service At the Door
By Elton Camp
It is a fate too frightful even to mention
If you somehow should get his attention
Might as well comply if he demands loot
For his power is very close to absolute
At the rights of taxpayers he will just sneer
From him you have a very great deal to fear
He is ugly, vengeful and disgustingly mean
And just loves to threaten to slap on a lien
Even if it’s innocent your mistake has been
He will behave as if it is actually a major sin
The power that he wields over citizens’ lives
Other government agencies to envy drives
So here are the words that taxpayers most fear
“Your return’s selected for audit this year.”
The agent may quickly tell what it’s about
“That you cheated on taxes, there’s no doubt.”
“But even if I am unable to prove your crime,
For the past ten years, I’ll audit ‘em each time.”
“And if any trouble about me you should give,
I’ll audit your future returns as long as you live.”
If, because I wrote this, auditing does bring
Don’t waste time as you won’t find a thing

Before I became a Super Hero,
I was a guy working a normal job,
Just trying to collect a few zeroes,
But when I got paid, I always got robbed.
There was a not-so-secret group of thieves,
Who got to my money before I did,
Kiling my pockets and making me grieve
For myself, as tears streamed from my eye lids.
When they gave it back, it was not enough
To purchase exactly what I needed,
So this meant that times were meant to be tough,
And was how I would always be treated.
There was a culprit that made me nervous
Named The Internal Revenue Service.
