lady
smiles as she hands back
my ledger
and my
completed forms.
she adjusts her wig
and slides
her cat
across the counter.
you only have to pay
twelve thousand
to the feds
this year,
and three to the state,
she says.
sign here
and here and here.
the people
in Pakistan are grateful
for your
money
and in helping to get their
transgender
opera off
the ground.
