"Packing a Musket"
by Jerri Blank

When you work from your home
and Johns call on the phone,
you're a call girl.

When you walk till you limp
and give a cut to a pimp,
you're a street whore.

When they're begging ya "please,"
to get down on your knees,
near their groinage,
scusa me,
but ya see,
don't ya touch
where they pee,
without

True, but I think the words of a fictional 46 year old teenage runaway high school freshman speak to us all.
