Pay Day

Dusty 20kg boxes of washing detergent. 
Shaking fingers wiping grime from a used-to-be-blue apron.
Gloved hands washing the bottom of a toilet bowl.
Tell me, what would you do for pay day? 

Fishnet stockings on a below freezing cold night.
Cigarette breath burning down the path to the beating heart.
Grubby fingers grabbing at skin: butt cheeks, thighs, nipples.
Tell me, what would you do for pay day?

Coffee operated driving at 3am.
Blood shot eyesight welcoming passengers.
Crumpled notes and pissed drunk vomit in the backseats.
Tell me, what would you do for pay day?
