Hooker

just alittle something i made up

Standing  on the street corner like a prize to be won.

Waiting for pleasure to find her.

Uses her feminine charms to reel them in.

She has them in the palm of her hand.

 

Giving the customer what they pay for.

Making a name for herself trying to become the creme of the crop.

Putting on a brave face for the world unknown.

Flaunts all she has to get by and to live.

 

Red lipstick, Fishnet stockings, high-heeled shoes line her body.

The stand of the lipstick is left on the collars of satisfied men.

Some waiting more but she leaves them needing more.

To ensure she will give service later.

 

Should we call them Independent businses women or lost souls trying to find a place in the cold, dark underwold of the night??

Yeah, it is a cruel world when the person is hooker. It is very dark and heartless world. The customers don't care about her feelings and little does she for herself.

In a sense, there are situations you are dragged into this world without your own will because for the money.

Great question.
as a defining moniker, i think hooker has served well, and will continue to do so

I have known many woman who were Hookers. We live in a world that value the flesh. When there is need for the feel of flesh. Woman will be able to make money. With age added to my life. Sex is important. But I learn there is a lot more things that are important. I like the poem. Direct and to the point. In a point about being a Soldiers. I stated once. When Soldiers are mercenaries for the Government for oil and wealth. Ain't nothing as bad as being a cheap w***e. A excellent poem. Thank you.

It's really good.... I have great admiration for people who can tackle dark subject matter... You dealt with it honestly and with grace... You had great compassion for some who most people don't you are really growing as a poet I am so proud of you... You have reached great lengths in a short amount of time

Well written. The first line just caught me. This is true to life and gritty.

[trainwreck]

The emotion could be added. I would love to see this expanded to what the guy thinks of her.

the sad truth this one is. people being treated like food in a vending machine..
it's not a powerful poem, though. i think it's because of the ending..end it with something that has impact. maybe something about what the hooker thinks or feels. there isn't much emotion written here ,too.

i didn't really enjoy this, sorry :/
should "waiting" be "wanting"? and "stand" be "stain"?
this seemed it could be better as just prose with some connecting words added in.
