Times are hard.
Prices increase.
Your desires don’t cease.
You want what you want
and you want it now.
It doesn’t matter how
you get the things
that you so desire.
You’re selling
your soul
for the glitter of gold.
It doesn’t matter
about morality.
All that matters
is the final fee.
You agree to
an arrangement of a coupling
without being a couple.
You smile.
You dress
and let the money
relieve the stress.
What about the aftermath?
The years not yet come.
Will you look at this and laugh?
Will you hide this in your past?
It’s easier said than done.
You did what you did
and now you go on.
