Sex Workers' Apathy Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Sex worker is the new nomenclature
Given to the degraded word prostitute.
Sex is entertained by the prostitutes
Just for material gratification.

Legal status given to sex worker
Failed to translate into social status.
They're looked down as abject elements
Abandoned by kin and slighted by folks.

They let their body for wishful handling
By men of any age, any life style,
Often without passion and with boredom
In order to get their bread and butter.

They face violence on bed from some wolves.
They face harassment from police vultures.
They fake orgasm from their painful heart.
They are left as straws after menopause.

Why not liberal sex instead of sex worker?
Why not love and sex as separated?
Why not consensual sex held as casual?
Why not sex a fearless entertainment?
