Lets Reward the Losers, Failures and Scoundrels!

When the Government policies indirectly promote and reward mediocrity / failure, you don't have anything for them except swear words and abuses. And it doesn't matter who heads the Government. Example 1: You pay the taxes, albeit belatedly, you pay interest. You don't pay up your taxes, you are given the option of settlement by paying just 40% of arrears!

A Veil's Wail

In you, I see What I don’t want to see Painful memories of past Reasons for my anguish Part of a life I have lost In you, I see What I want to live for The purpose of my life The reason for my smile The cause to come out my trife In you, I see The product of lust and love In you, I also see The memories of that lost love With you, I am Worried about the future unknowns Scared of your question in tons Living a life, tormented by past Living a lie, a Life full of farce With you, I am Enjoying the sun shine Hearing my laughter again Going back to my childhood Relieved of my agony and pain With you, I Live and jive. With you, I also Hide and Lie. In things that you do, I see A bit of him and a bit of her The demons of the past Streaks of violence and a bully And all such things that shouldn’t last In things that you do, I feel The bliss of innocence The radiance of purity The love f...
