Who can say where these things come from?
I just open my mind and let em flow,
Sometimes they blow,
And sometimes they do quite on you grow...;)


Poem Artwork

The Taxman doth cometh…


 


Is that him hippity hopping down the street?


With all the brightly colored eggs,


Oh no that is the Easter bunny, just a little late,


What else is new, what else is my usual fate…?


 


Or is that him with the red suit and reindeer?


Landing on my roof and sliding down my sewer pipe,


Oh shit, that is Santa Clause, boy is he late, I will have to gripe,


So where is this taxman that doth cometh on the 15th…?


 


He has a new EZ form for all of us to use,


Better we would be if we all just, when he comes to the door, snooze,


The new EZ form says to just give all of our earnings to the man,


Of this new tax idea, I do not think I will be much of a fan,


Maybe I should just move to an island in the sun, there I can keep all I have,


As well I can lie on the beach sipping drinks made of rum and get myself a tan…

So true here too in Canada, Ed. And God knows, do they waste what we send them!!! Love this. And your comment regarding my weekly posting made me revisit the graphic. How awesome, dude! You're right. You know. I never saw it when I chose it. Thanks so much. Love and peace to you and to Rufuz. Regis

I've got my refund in the bank. Didn't owe anybody a cent this year. I like the form up there. Does the IRS know you hacked their computer?
