Tugging at the Soul

Capitalism:                Nature:                 Love:
   Dangerously Cheesy         Soft breeze             Email secrets
   Cooler Ranch               Warm sunlight           Instant messages
   Milky Way                  Neatly mowed            One person
silently begs to be        offers tulips and       promises a moment of
 purchased                  trees                   escape

there is a fourth tug that is mere demand
   careless
of the consequence of its desires
do this by then or else
      no matter what

Reread that. There's a lot of sarcasm waiting to be seen. And general weirdness.
