Tis the day....let us rejoice....NaPoWriMo #20

Tax in the Road

Driving down the road
Turn and hit a pot hole
On the way to the mailbox
Grumbling about government
Wanting to remove the hands
That reach in and take
And I brake suddenly hitting
A tiny innocent creature
That scurries across my path
Nope, already dead
Animal control will scrape it up
It is spring and they seem to be everywhere
Tending those creatures who scare
Easily in our path
My envelope of duty slid under the seat
Somewhere by my feet
I want to forget to send
But it is for services I spend
Who would this money go to
If I didn’t issue you?
So many are in need
So, I heed the law
Better roads to install

I hope they fix this before Fall
