FLUSH

We're flush with:

Check loans
and ringtones
and ice cream cones
and value menus
and music venues
and checkout lines
and no smoking signs
and city enforced lawn fines
Jager bombs
and soccer moms
and men in traffic seeking alms
home owners associations
and home invasions
tax evasions
and playstations
Xbox
and pop rocks
and Botox
and construction-displaced red fox
paved over wetlands
and cover bands
and mini vans
big macs
and panic attacks
and achievement plaques
and car jacks
and commentary tracks
crack
smack
and 2 squad cars for every pulled over black
Blue-Tooth
and Baby Ruth
billions on "reality" not a dime on the truth
vets
pets
and rooms to let
TIVOs to set
and OTBs taking bets
Hooters
and looters
and first person shooters
drug stings
and automated baby swings
buffalo wings
and suburban white boy bling
blood clots
and toys for tots
Body shots
and wood rot
30-second spots
open preschool academy slots
and bumper-sticker-deep political thought
book clubs
and hot tubs
and pay stubs
and Caribbean jerk chicken rubs
YouTube
and JiffyLube
augemented boobs
and flamed noobs
Cubicles
Musicals
and chewed-down cuticles
FEMA
edema
and short term financial schema
white sales
and white males
and predatory eyes on the bike trails
Cacky shorts
and park district sports
USB ports
and chair and blanket forts
jam packed circuit courts
NASCAR
and Pinot Noir
C-section scars
and smoke free strip bars
psychological baggage
and stuffed cabbage
a cultural bandage
and a stimulus package
Plumbers
Hummers
and world wide bummers
a challenge to all-comers
Vodcasts
and spinning class
and shade grass
peak bone mass
and "Nice turn signal, Jackass!"
Sunday drivers
and olympic divers
social ladder climbers
two coats of primer
and make-up covered shiners
Shriners
Whiners
and egg timers
Downloads
pincodes
frontage roads
and the subtle way every trend explodes
Terry stops
and album drops
and Dow drops
cream wrap tops
and mall-cops
Soul mates
and divorce rates
speed dates
and wine crates
genetic traits
and jail bait
Hate
Fate
and checks from the State
and the wait
the wait
the wait
please wait

why yes...

we're flush with
the suburban bourbon of a billion choices
drunk and bedazzled by the pointless noises
and no matter how we all felt
we chipped away at the green belt
we've sold ourselves as traffic slaves
but we're blessed
because
