Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Mushroom Woman

A lady of the evening, I

Like to hang out in a place that

Has dark and damp in good supply.

It's my most pleasant habitat

For me to meet and greet, gee whiz,

The fun guy ones who seek me out

To sell my name brand of show biz,

The oldest profession, no doubt.

But when I see you head toward me,

I knew you would be trouble, true,

And so, emphatic I must be,

I will not be picked up by you.

This Mushroom Woman is no fool,

You are just a nasty toadstool!
