I said that I would do it,
just this once for a friend,
who was ill with a stomach bug,
she had to pay her rent.
The lights they were blinding,
as I stood there in bra and pants,
feelings of humiliation,
taking hold I tried to dance.
"Get them off," said An Unseen Voice," to me,
I peered through the lights, nothing I could see.
"Come on lady you gotta do your thing,"
shouted that Unseen Voice to me again.
I started to gyrate, the music it was great,
I closed my eyes, my cheeks were red,
undoing my bra,
I did what they said.
The crowd shouted, "more!"
so I turned my back on them all,
in accordance with their wishes,
over my shoulder, I blew many kisses.
I felt a sudden panic,
with my hands clutching my breast's,
I turned to face my audience,
I wished that I was dressed.
I then threw my hands down, gave a little wiggle,
then with a panic, I started to giggle,
I saw this pole in the middle of the floor,
they all shouted, "do it, you know what it's for."
Then that Unseen Voice, shouted for more,
I lifted my legs up, right off the floor,
onto the pole, I let myself slide down,
going to fast, I fell with a thud to the ground.
When the show was over,
standing in my birthday suit,
I did a little curtsy,
they shouted, "hey! that's cute.
And when I saw my friend Elaine,
I said, "I'll never do that again,"
I did as I was told, because I had no choice,
being told what to do, by An Unseen Voice.
And with my very sore bottom,
I went back to my flat in Rotherham,
slipped into my nice warm bed,
at last to rest my weary head.

This reminds me of the musical 'Gypsy' - not sure if you've seen it? But the main character has to do something similar! A tale well told, Jenny ;)

Hi Magic,
I thankyou so much for the great comment, no I have
never seen the musical 'Gypsy,' I just happened to
be watching Bridget Jones's Diary last night, and
the idea came into my head.
Jenny.

I liked this but probably for all the wrong reasons. I know its supposed to be humor but its also quite erotic.
skinner_jennifer | January 3, 2011 - 20:35
Hi well-wisher,
that's fine to see it as an erotic piece, I leave it
to the reader to see it as they will.
I am just glad that you enjoyed it, I just had this
picture of Rene Zelwegger up on the stage. Sorry if
I spelt her name wrong, I cannot remember how to
spell it.
Thanks again.
Jenny.

skinner_jennifer | June 21, 2011 - 13:42
thankyou for reading this poem, it seems like ages
ago when I wrote it, how time flies!
Anyway I'm really happy that you liked it and thankyou for letting me know.
Jenny.
