Gutter Currency

(The story of a young, poor girl marrying a wealthy man to escape a life of prostitution)

Hip hop,
Glam rock,
Chase the dragon?
On the wagon!
Flea pit?
Keep it!
Daddy’s sugared,
Multicoloured.
That’s rich,
Filthy bitch!
Plenty cash,
Lots of hash,
Comfi life,
No strife,
Nice ‘n’ easy,
Cool ‘n’ sleazy.
Sno joke,
Fat bloke,
Not a dime,
Life of crime.
Free at last,
Forget the past,
Rich now,
And how?
Sold my soul,
Reached my goal,
Pimp gone,
Cool con,
So smooth,
Don’t approve?
On the fence?
Don’t make sense!
Makes me smile,
For while… anyway.
