ANGELA'S VIRGINITY (POEM)

ANGELA’S VIRGINITY

Mama is no more, Papa is sick
Room filled with gloom from a dying wick
To cure Papa’s cough of old
Physician must have coins of gold

Palms slap in helplessness
Willing pockets cry penniless

No hope of Papa getting well,
Unless articles of value we sell

But only thing left in dingy vicinity
Is Angela’s innocent virginity
