CHANUKAH
An old joke about the US Internal Revenue Service:
"How much money did you make last year?
Send it in."
Yesterday
not that troubles seemed so far away
but seemed manageable
a Hearing Officer said to me
"You are in contempt of your alimony order.
I do not care if you are unemployed.
I do not care if you need to live too.
How much is in your checking account? If
you do pay it all to the court by 3 PM
I will have you sent to jail."
Tell her.
In her graciousness she leaves me $11 dollars for two weeks
with a new job on Monday and no way to get there.
It is perhaps Chanukah.
The Jews made one day's worth of oil
burn for eight.
Maybe I can do the same
especially if I put a tip jar on my website.
