When Bordello Was Fun 2 Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

When a Bordello was fun

I sit down with the best intention to write about flowers
and love which made me think the whore houses tend to have
plastic flowers and that is apt as it is
not a place for romance red roses and chrysanthemums
I have had much fun at house of ill repute not only the sex
but also dancing the laughter and the girls liked a young
sailors and the possibility of warmer feelings.
I know of seamen who married former prostitutes and their
marriages have normally been a happy one.
Time has changed women victims now of men's sexual demands
And it has been outlawed in many countries.
Just as well now girls are called sex workers like hire home help
cold cash on the table the price depending on the position like
asking the home help to weed the garden, well you have to pay
extra or that
