I stand in a street in Phuket
holding a placard—
‘Thai massage for 300 Bhat.’
I lure strangers
promising them happy endings.
A man finally stops,
asks me— ‘how long?’
I reply smiling—
‘as long as you can last.’
Two-three turns every night
enough to feed my children
to buy cosmetics for myself
a free day
no one to boss me around.
