Carl Sandburg - Soiled Dove

Carl Sandburg - Soiled Dove

Let us be honest; the lady was not a harlot until she br married a corporation lawyer who picked her from br a Ziegfeld chorus. br Before then she never took anybody's money and paid br for her silk stockings out of what she earned singing br and dancing. br She loved one man and he loved six women and the br game was changing her looks, calling for more and br more massage money and high coin for the beauty br doctors. br Now she drives a long, underslung motor car all by herself, br reads in the day's papers what her husband is br doing to the inter-state commerce commission, requires br a larger corsage from year to year, and wonders br sometimes how one man is coming along with br six women.
