Ladies of the Night | Colleen Riehl

It’s midday!
a familiar corner
they’re always there
vivid gaudy make up
glittery red
thigh high boots
sparkly
micro mini skirts
with midriff tops…
and always..
seedy smiles

A car pulls alongside.
The occupant
scrutinises
not only faces.
They barter..
a door opens
now there are
two inside.
Is he
a lawyer
doctor
husband
or
someone’s father?
