When her husband died early, <br />she felt her world shattered suddenly. <br />He was the sole bread-earner. <br />She with no schooling became a manual worker. <br />A small salary couldn't make the ends meet, <br />life was really hard and difficult indeed. <br />To fill her kid's stomach with enough food, <br />she would neither steal or loot. <br />She took the world's oldest profession, <br />it was selling sex in prostitution. <br />She knew it was not right, <br />but she had to swallow her pride. <br />It was her part-time job, <br />her heart wept with a sob. <br />It was a way of no other ways, <br />she worked on night of Saturday, <br />and slept all day on Sunday. <br /> <br />Then one night <br />with a scary fright. <br />The police went to check, <br />while she and John during the sexual act. <br />She wanting to destroy the evidence, <br />hurriedly with a feeling so reluctance, <br />put the semen-filled condome in her mouth, <br />The police couldn't find though thoroughly sought. <br />The police then asked her name, <br />her answer came out very strange, <br />Her voice babbling and slurred, <br />the condome popped out from mouth corner. <br />She wept with her teeth gnashed, <br />as she was put under arrest. <br />Gone were the kid's school fees, <br />She didn't know how to face them when she was free..<br /><br />U Win Kyi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-sex-worker-3-she-swallowed-the-pride-and/
