👮 ... If I Didn't Have To Spend Money On Uncle TAXi ... 👮

________________________________________________________________________________________________

 My girlfriend
would love me for
the Forty Days of Christmas  
If I gave her
a total of forty $100 gifts

However,
Uncle TAXi
will not allow
that to happen
 
Because
I have to give HIM
the equivalent of
forty-five $100 gifts

My uncle's full name
is
 PROPERTi TAXi
and he is full of power
over homeowners
like me
 
Without Uncle TAXi
and his kin,
Uncle Sam would have
empty pockets
 
If I ignored Uncle TAXi,
he could padlock me 
out of home and hearth
👮
 
👮
But he is considerate enough
to accept half-payment
in December
and the other half
in March
