Ah, the American Dream cliched
Personified,
waltzing down the hall
with an American flag hand bag
and matching button pin to boot
They go so well with your Gucci shoes
You support the fight for freedom
So you can have your American way
and live in your too big house
drive your too fast car
and have too much food
on your plate
Screaming at the top of your lungs
"More tax breaks for the rich!"
Land of opportunity;
help yourself
Don't mind if I do
Feeding off of others
in the capitalist food chain
Good-bye middle class
who needs you
Welcome back aristocracy
Cleverly disguised as democracy
Hey, as long as you're on top
why knock it?

Author's Note: This was written about one person..so unless you have an American flag handbag, matching button and Gucci shoes and were at the mall today please take no offense. If you are her, go see a taxidermist. He can help you with your problem.
