Lady of the Night


I’ve got no name except the street I stand on, I’m a woman who knows her worth at fifty dollars an hour. I know rocks don’t go on fingers, but slip into pipes. And men get to love me, without ever knowing the color of my eyes. They always ask if I got a light, but I only live in the dark.
