Island Hopping

did any
of the parents ever ask, 
so where are you
going
this weekend
with that three day 
luggage,
wearing your yoga
pants
with your hair all done
and your lipstick on?
you're taking
a trip to an island
with a middle-aged man
and 
some lawyers, a Prince,
some congressmen
and an ex-president?
when will you be home?
and we were
wondering how
you can afford that new car
and mink stole.
is there something you aren't
telling us?
are all of your friends
also going along?
don't forget to bring your
homework
with you,
you have an economics
test on Monday.
so where is this island
anyway?
can we reach you by phone?
