Never mind statutory, again <br />I’m not talking about young lovers... <br />This is serious stuff... It’s PAIN <br />To be endured over and over... <br /> <br />Endured again and again, so that <br />The pimp who owns you profits... <br />Battered, bruised and diseased, you know <br />His concern’s the money he gets. <br /> <br />Five times a night, ten times a night, <br />He thinks that more is always better. <br />He has no concern for your plight <br />And doesn’t care for your sore sphincter... <br /> <br />Then you’re no longer a novelty, <br />His regulars clamor for “fresh meat.” <br />He’ll sell you as “good quality” <br />And buy a younger girl as a treat... <br /> <br />So now you’ll be starting over, <br />Same old story, but with new faces. <br />Rape follows rape... There’s no lover <br />To charm you with his good graces... <br /> <br />After five years of prostitution, <br />You’ve learned from the back of the hand <br />That the money is what matters <br />And there’s no such thing as a good man <br /> <br />You’ve been through seven abortions <br />And you know it’ll happen again.. <br />It’s part of the degradation <br />When you’re used and abused by men <br /> <br />It’s birth control where you come from- <br />Common practice in your line of work, <br />Where you’ll seldom see a condom <br />And “the pill” is something you can’t afford... <br /> <br />You’ve become older and wiser <br />You know that you’ve earned plenty <br />You can’t help it that your pimp’s a miser <br />But what will you do when you turn twenty?<br /><br />Karl Stuart Kline<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/2-4-rape-for-hire/
