LOLITAS ON THE SUBWAY 1977

School breaks open at 2.
Young girls lounge on the subway
Tramping uptown in the afternoon light.
Seemingly ready for action.
And it's not all a bluff.
Teenage girls aren't scared of the Lower East Side slums
Tenement buildings eternally burning
Their youth is eternal
Decadent
Daring
Dangerous

The pimps of Times Square can't catch them
These sirens go to good schools
They offer the promise of horror, fantasy, and lust
Bored to death of the touch of their fathers' friends

Lolitas on the subway
Taunting old men's desires
A finger pulls apart the school uniform
Fourteen and ripe with power
Ingenue eyes asking, "You want to watch?"
And what man can refuse Lolitas' lost lips

Laughing at all men.
<|Their peals of teenage lust echoing of tiled walls

Going home
Thumpbam
Thump bam
Thump thump bam bam
The lolitas degang on East 86th Street
They are rich girls
Inside their doorman apartments they lock the bedroom doors
Thumpbam
Thump bam
Now more a lolitas just a girl in pajamas which she was lolita Thumpbam
Thump bam
A young girl waiting for her master.
Knowing her ssecret name
Knowing where she wants to be touched
Lolita
