In the back alley
behind a mall
lies a rusty coat hanger
part of a homeless man's
surgical tools
Many a woman has it saved
from the disgrace of family
and for a mere dollar
who could blame them
It is a symbol against
the world
for the statement it makes
is pure evil
yet it will pervail
as long as children
run around unprotected
and seek help
from the easiest answer
they can find
a savior to whores
and a threat to us
the offspring
of them
