Could a Flash site feed Google some good text with a long Description Meta tag?

I'm trying to help some friends get their site to rank better in Google. Problem is, the site is almost all Flash and Google doesn't seem to be picking up on any keywords other than the file names and Title tags.

I just had a thought though that perhaps i could put in a Description meta tag that is like 300 or 400 words - essentially a unique article I could have given to Ezine - and feed google some good keyword text that way.

If I put a unique article on each of the 9 or so pages I think that should help a lot.

What do you think?

    None of the SEs can read flash sites. Just one of the many reasons why Flash sites suck.
    Putting an article in the Description tag? Probably not a good idea.
    It's supposed to be short.

    What to do? Many people but up a text version of the site in addition to the flash version. So that the SEs can read the site and so that people who hate flash and people using iPhones, iPads, etc... can see the site.

      Yah I understand that Flash sites suck for lots of reasons but it's what they have for now so i'm trying to make the best of it.

      I'm confused as to how I'd put up a text site in addition to the flash version. Could you please explain?

      Thanks
