In this case the flow is greater going out than coming in! Like all cash flows! Great little contest entry cuz! I like the way thye message is delivered with that twist of ironic comedy. Nice touch!

This poem meets the requirements of the contest, as well as having the satirical twist at the end. I didn't notice any errors. Good job.

Sue,

What a great poem, my friend and a great contest entry as well. Yep, the true meaning of cash flow is my money going somewhere or to someone I don't even know. lol Well done and good luck in the contest.

The content of this poems ties in with the title "Liquidity", well done.

Where did the money go?
Sounds like you need an auditor.

Ahhh! The meaning of cash flow.
This is a witty line and a great way of answering the question of where the money went to. The twist is well presented here, liquidity as in having liquid assets e.g. cash yet you are presenting a non-liquid situation, no cash!

cash flow - the choice of the word "flow" is excellent, liquid does indeed flow!

From an ex auditor and accountant, bravo. You do understand your book-keeping lingo.

All the best for the contest.

    Helen, I loved your review with all the interpretations you observed. All were correct. How could it not be if you are an accountant?!!! Ha!!

    I don't know if you ever saw Woody Allen's movie, "Manhattan", but it's worth renting it just to see one small scene. He's in a grocery store with his friend, telling him how bad his personal financial situation is. He is confused by all his accountants terms and at the end, says "something's not flowing". Cracks me up even if I see it 100 times! HA!

    Thanks so much for your most generous review. So much appreciated,
    Sue

Oh, how adorable... I am still laughing. "Liquidity"? That is an ingenious take on the matter. And I just love "cash flow". Yes, the cash definitely flowed out of the wallet. A clever and witty epigram (isn't it a great form?), that has a sustained release quality, and is going to stay with a reader for a long time.

Good luck in the contest - this one sounds like a winner.

Fondly, Yelena

lol, truer words were never spoken. I think you have written the epigram for a nation. Wonderfully done. Witty and truthful all in one shot.

You said it. You told a complete story in just a few lines. It is truly an enjoyable read. I wish I had six stars but I'm all used up and only allowed five. Good luck and keep 'em coming.
