The City

The city is like a fast woman:
The businessman and politician is her pimp.
I do not trust her so I kiss
with my eyes open.
The truth is disguised by an expensive
scent to absorb the stench.
She is dishonourable yet the blind
clothe her with respect,
she is very attractive and costly to befriend;
she will entertain you
with short-lived happiness
until your money is spent.
Feels like you have no friends.
