Passing through a scanner of the TSA, I was nabbed for a container of aerosol spray.
It wasn't a matter of attempted circumvention, or an act of malice that warranted detention.
It's simply that I packed a dittie in a rush - which resulted in it's seizure and my face full of flush.

Problem is we're running late
The equipment pictured isn't mine
I'm stuck in Chicago doin' time
Our Airbus started out in GA
Mechanical issues earlier today
Needs to be fixed so that all is fine
But leaves me in Chicago doin' time
The conductor comes making his call
"Tickets please", is pronounced to all
Each snap of his punch pierces the air
As he summarizes to zones our collective where's
Here and there people Tweet, mobile data’s really neat - read, reply and then delete
We are textestrians!
Dining with friends I do adore. Yikes, the conversation’s a bore. Humm, what’s up beyond the door?
We are textestrians :)
To the mall with PDA near, when wielded in front it becomes a spear and away from us others must veer
We are textestrians
Immediacy is a continuous need, “Can’t wait, right now," that’s the creed. Rapid blather, heed and bleed ...
We are textestrians?

Resurrection is in detection
