(101299)

in stiletto heels she stands
the once shiny red
scuffed and broken
her face caked with makeup
hiding her true age
teased hair
piled high
short, faded black miniskirt
barely covering her bone thin,
anorexia ridden legs
a cheap, 80s style halter top clings to her ribs
a logo of a one hit wonder gracing the front
faux fur, dragging to the ground
matted with age
a cigarette dangles from her cracked lips and she puffs away
standing on 54th
waiting for her next client
that'll give her enough for food tonight.
