The Day Before New Years

'Twas the day before New Years,

And all through the land,

Folks were rushing to donate

Used clothing (off-brand).

Trump's tax bill, they fear,

Will bring little cheer.

Non-cash contributions

Will not be so dear.

No closet was spared,

No drawer left un-open.

It must go today,

To good cause, I'm a hopin'.

We pre-paid our taxes,

And hope no reduction,

By IRS audit

From this year's deduction.

As we bid fare-thee-well

To Schedule "A" as we knew it,

We can only hope someday,

They'll think to renew it.

Taxpayers rejoice!
As you get a cut.
For a decade or so,
No ifs, ands, or buts.

But watch out below,
As tax cuts expire,
Not for the boss,
Just those who are hired..

So as they rode off,
Into the dark night,
They whispered to cronies,
"We fixed you up. Right?"

Think the old TV show "Rawhide" (boy, howdy, that dates me):

Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Keep those loopholes flowin'
Tax attorneys are glowin', RAWHIDE!

If you have some vagueness,
They will just claim blameless,
Pardon me, I'm shameless, RAWHIDE!

Giddy up, saddle up, gross-it up, mark-it up
RAWHIDE!

Fade to black.

For fans of the Music Man:

Seventy-six forced errors in the recent Tax Bill,
With 112 more lurking just behind,
Once the tax attorneys get their pencils sharpened up,
The results will hardly be too kind.

The horse platoon was none to kind to Steve Mnuchin,
Pooping, pooping all into a box,
The culprit found, was left unbound,
Munching on some bagels and some lox.

Thousands of inconsistencies at the latest count,
With another tens of thousands yet to spawn,
But we are left with a flawed bill,
Thanks to Capitol Hill,
And all we can do is stifle a huge yawn.

Seventy-six congressmen faced the voters' ire,
Seventy-six were voted out of office,
The nation rejoiced, as we gave our voice,
To Democracy, the peoples' choice.

And the Nation clicked along apace.

Happy New Year Everyone.
