taxes,taxes
taxing me
gnawing at my reverie
eating up my wherewithall
to play and laugh
and have a ball

if only I would just not play
finish them
and cure the day

but such a pain
they are to me
not difficult, I truly say
but they haunt that I have found
the corrected way

so I will not have to send amend
for that action
gives me the bends

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

hahahahaha
just couldn't help myself with this one
found the need to write it
chewing on my mind
*smile*

Just thought of this verse to add:

do them, to them
you will see,
they're good for you
they're good for me
try them here
try them there
in fact try them
anywhere!

in your home,
in your car,
in your neighborhood's
best bar
wait a minute
or wait two
perhaps they'll come
anhilate you!



Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
