So you say that it
Is fair to take from
The productive one?
Is to tax him or
Her to death your goal?
Except for rights, we
Are unequal, or
Ought to be that way.
You should not lust in
Taking a piece of
That pie. Have you yet
Considered knowing
The whole recipe?
Breaking legs is just
As vicious as the
Way you want to tax
Productive members
Of society.
How do you make the
People equal you
Say? A bullet will
Do. Are you set on
Understanding the
Direction of the
Equal? Let it be
Known. Only in death
Are we all the same.

Smartystan
The gleam from the streets of Smartystan sparked the brain. Platinum and diamond streets always seemed to drive thought in the city-state-nation. It meant that vehicles could rove over the avenues and boulevards with ease and become not a distraction but a reminder of how clean and well-kept even the alleyways and back lots had been.

Spiders
I have a spider in my shower. I have taken a shower in there three times despite this knowledge and it haunts me between each drop of water, each brush against the wall or showerhead. I do not know where it lurks. I saw it once and since then it has maintained a steady hidden location, to which my eyes only half-heartedly search.
