Summary: Can't buy me love.......?!




Prostitutes, I've heard
Standing on corners
Don't kiss their clients
They put up with it
Of course
But for cash
not feelings
A done deal
An act, maybe art
even
Skins touch but
don't get close
You can smell the contempt
for men
who need to pay
and don't mind
when the lips
are snatched away.
