POLITICAL POETRY: "REJECT" BY MYLES

We reject the bill 

For we pay their bills 

We demo in peace

They leave us in pieces!

Torn en shuttered

While we get buttered

For they're bullies

As they get contented!

Hyenas they're

Never getting enough

For we toil hard

Only to make some rich folks richer!

I stand tall

Nothing is gonna shorten me

For death flees at a sight of me

As it shivers to the bones!

I refuse to be a slave

I refuse to be used

For dumping me you won't

I refuse the financial bill 2024!

The poet persona rejects the heavy tax bill which has been newly heavy tax structures. The voice sees this heavy tax-law as being a slave in one's land.
