My Ambition Is To Be A Prostitute Poem by Nur Meiyati

When I was a child I was asked
What is your dream to be?
Confused I answered that I had a lot dreams when I slept
But I soon forgot when I got up
No, no, I mean what do you want to be when you are older?
Not exposed to many choices I innocently answered
I want to be an older person and then got married and had children
No, no, I mean what is your ambition?
Ambition? What is that? I don't even know what it means
Even if you explain to me what it is
Desperate, I was then asked
Ok, what do you want?
I want electricity installed in my house
Ah ….I was just a small kid at that time
Knew nothing about the world
So sorry if my answers shows I was like an idiot
But now if I am asked
What I want to be now or what my dream is now
I will answer in a strong determination
No doubt in my mind, no fears, no pretence
“I want to be a prostitute”
I want to be able to make love to any men in the world
I don't mind any colours of their skin
White, black, yellow, brown, even purple and pink or blue (if there are any)
There will be no manipulative ads (sorry to say so)
That way, I want, men will forget to make stupid wars and create destruction to our beautiful world
That will make misery to MY children of the world
And to soldiers and small people
Don't you understand
Even the worse and sinful making love is still better than wars

Hey Men
Who want to make love to me
I guarantee you will like me although I am not young anymore (wink)
Forget wars and make love to me
Make love to me
Make love to me
Raise your hand and stand up
And say “YES”
I love you all
