Penny

Filth
I wallow in it
It secretes out of my pores
pale skin full of flaws.

Still, I shine
Like  a new penny
I\'m pretty so men pick me up
Full of lust wishing to get lucky.

Pick me up
Put me back down
Forgotten in a dish with others like me
free for the taking
they all leave me
disappointed a penny isn\'t worth much.

They touch me excitedly
I\'m covered in microscopic germs
from unclean hands
no such luck.
