I like the idea of what dialyn is saying. I realize some girls are in it for the (fast) money and the life (so to speak), etc. Therefore, to try and infer ALL night ladies fall into the category of my poem is wrong. Writing about one nonspecific person seems better in that regard. Then, things get blurred because, this one person could be seen by some as the representative of a group of people. So, conceivably, we are writing about a segment of the hooker population. Never knew it would be so difficultgrin. Also, Im glad Stormrage understood the need to just use a dirty word in the poem. The use of that word, to me, seems to make sure (or TRY to make sure) the reader is yanked into the real world and wipe away memories of what they have seen in Pretty Woman (as dialyn mentioned). Im just glad it didnt get yanked for TOS. Once again, I appreciate all the attention this subject has gotten. And, once again, it shows how many different ways there are to approach a subject AND inspect it.
