Many an
Act of Congress has
—In dis order—
An End, a Beginning,
And a Muddle
:- Doug.
A tax to pay
After all the taxes
On all the income and property
Over all the years
Still the state claims share
Of what is left
When we die
What justice this?
What lobby of dead people
Can oppose?
Why the tax?
Some say Redistribute
Earth’s wealth
Back to all the people
But if the tax be upon
The poor and middle
What justice this?
Quietly you may hear truer:
Because we can
What justice this?

In a time to which only imagination has the key, perhaps now time, hear time, ever never, our lives truly live among the giants….
