You don't have to shed your dress
  like snake skin, swallow his mess
  for 100 dollars by the "easy" hour
  the final payoff always tastes sour.
  Wait tables. Service check out lines
  at big box stores just little crimes.
  Keep your fragile dignity intact or
  chase reality as a lover by the hour.
