I'M A Hooker

Rating: 4.8


Don't
Judge
Me


Please
Believe
Me


I
Am
Not


What
You
Think


I
Am
Only


Forced
By
Life


Into
Terrible
Choices


Saving
My
Children


With
My
Body


Sold
To
Them


The
Highest
Bidders


Tears
I
Hide


Fears
Not
Allowed


Call
Me
Names


Just
Don't
Hurt


My
Babie's
Dreams


Nothing
To
Do


With
My
Sins


No
Wrong
Done


They
Are
Victims


Mother
To
Blame


Could
Have
Done


So
Much
More


So
I
Try


Try
Making
Right


All
My
Wrongs


Tonight
Laying
Down


What
I
do


I
So
Hate


Still
No
Choice


I
Must
Save


My
Children
From


From
This
Awful


World
So
Cruel


Forced
To
Admit


In
My
Shame


Yes
I
Am


Yes
I
Am


I am a hooker.....................

Gripping work. I like the spacing and the line breaks. It adds a frenetic energy and a desperation to the piece. Good work. Cheers, Joy

Its not what you do its why that you do it, Point well made through a structure which conveys speaking from the heart!
