Death & Taxes
by Tony Whitaker
Finality beyond your comprehension
For one ends only when the other begins.
One paid with sweat
The other, a final breath
What then?
What is life without taxes?
Payment for a privilege
To walk among the living
More privilege
More payment
More, more, more
For what is there in life without death
Always looming on the horizon
Waiting
Watching
Calling.
Then?
The End.
