Letter: A poem about the proposed street light tax

I’ve heard it all — a street light tax Let’s hope your street light stays on.

By: Judy White Schmidt, Worthington, Worthington Daily Globe

I’ve heard it all — a street light tax

Let’s hope your street light stays on

The next tax will be the J. Crapper tax

He made the toilet seat that you sit upon!

The criteria for this future tax

will be how many times, how many flushes

and will be measured through the sewer

and will measure your sewer water rushes.

I don’t think this will be printed

because people don’t use logic now, you know.

I’m just an ole’ 70-year old granny

who pays these bills as I go.
