"Yeah,
it's for the money."
Jezebel
is probably the
strongest woman I've met. I'd watch the coldness in her eyes as she
stared at her own naked body in a mirror while she danced and then feel
the suffocating warmth of her voice when she talked about her dying
son.
Jezebel
began dancing three nights a week and every other weekend when she found
out her seven-year-old son had a brain tumor. Within weeks the tumor
had spread. He was in and out of hospitals every couple of days.
One
day you're an accountant, at a desk all day, phone calls, lunch breaks,
errands, carpools. The next you're given a $20 bill to sit on a man,
press against him, hold him, touch him - until he gets off. Trip.
