"Lessons From the Whores"

by Jeph Johnson

 

some things I found out
much too early
and others
way too late–
the secrets to life
are barely
anything more
than fate:
women want
to be fucked...
like whores
without excuse.
whores don't want
to be fucked at all
and still can choose!
and no one was ever
conceived out of
respect or tenderness,
though people die
everyday
with dignity and purpose...
we are born
innocently enough
and deserve for it
no applause.
still I want to
die passionately
and fuck for a good cause
