What MADE her a prostitute? | A Poem by Bhavya Shree v


What MADE her a prostitute?



What made her

a prostitute?

Is it her appetite?

Her fear to live?

Her loneliness?

Her nakedness?

Her failed marriage

Or

Her NEED?

NO.......

It was his

""LUST""

Only his...

He is a gentry in morn

But not she.

Round the clock

She is a hooker

While he is a gallant

In day light.

Together with

Lily livered in dark


And she...?

She is a woman of hour;

A prick teaser,

Body seller


And he ?


""Seduced ""


Why don't you call him a

Hustler?


No

We only have whores

No man is a hustler.


Only women loose her virginity,

No 'MAN' would.


How absurd?


Alas!


I breathed....
