Waking Up With Dignity

taking a walk,down my memory lane-i saw people and places that were not familar 
to me. there were men,many men-they look at me with such lust in their eyes.licking 
their lips as they touched me,sliding me money-telling me "baby,i love the way you 
do that to me."   and then i wake up-all alone in my bed,no men;no money-just 
me,myself and i and most important,my dignity.
