Quatrain of Death & Taxes

Death & Taxes - these should not
be synonymous

We have been slyly taught from
childhood, men cannot
escape death and
taxes,

This notion came from lords and
kings, who have always
wielded swords and
axes.

If the soul of free men were not
so weak, taxes could be
stopped and easily
slain,

Gaining control of one out two
deadly sins would be a worthy
accomplished and ease life's
pain.
