"Lady of the Night" - A Poem

in poetry •  7 years ago

The lady wears
What she can
To appeal to the lust
Of the passing man
Slowing at the corner
Off to work
Her temporary office is his van
The lady does transactions
That feed the belly
The world would leave empty
Society’s reactions
Scorn those who starve
In the midst of plenty

      Totally beautiful Lady is a very defamed figure and there must be a good revival for some time. Greetings friend I love your blog
