Bell, Book, and Taxes (104)

Yes, the bell is about to toll for April 15th, and the IRS reg book is about to close for another year, and yes, finally, yes, my taxes are filed and paid in full today.

Tested to the limit
Asked to give too much
Xyster could be needed
Extracting all I’ve got to
Satisfy the tax man
Pulling savings out
All other funds have vanished
I don’t know where to turn
Deliverance could await me
In an unemployment line
Not having any income
For IRS to assign
Unless they find a way to count
Lost coins within my purse
Leave me alone for just a while
To build my safety net
Or maybe stash some dough away
Despite the constant threat
Alone I’ve faced the IRS, next
Year it starts again.
