Array ( [sid] => 48636 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Whore [time] => 2004-05-22 08:18:47 [hometext] => I went to see Monster lastnight and it gave me inspiration to write a poem about a Prostitute. [bodytext] => That’s what I am a whore, a streetwalker a hussy,
I will sleep with anybody I am not fussy,
Men do with me what they don’t dare with their wives,
And after they’re done they run back to their normal lives.

People don’t see the person behind the name,
All they see is a tart on the game,
They don’t stop to think that we have mouths to feed,
Or pay off our debts to loan sharks driven by greed.

You look at me like I just crawled out of the gutter,
As I walk past I hear those malicious things you mutter,
I have to eat and provide like the rest,
I love my kids and by them I always do my best.

Just because I perform sexual acts for a bit of cash,
And I dress scantly clad and my personality is brash,
Doesn’t mean that I don’t need love and I don’t cry,
Or that I don’t pray and ask our God why?

I am a human being through and though,
Although I dress and talk a bit different to you,
It hurts when my pimp leaves me beaten on the floor,
Why won’t someone help, or can’t you see the person, just the whore!

this was amazingly expressed. it is so true that we all have emotions and no matter what we may do in our own lives we all deserve respect and the right to be loved. i think you really thought this out well and it really moved me.
