Border Patrol

Eight painted white, pointed
fenceposts stand straight
as stiff sentries,
protect the yard gratefully
from miscreants,
perverts and truants.

Most prostitutes and the destitute
are perfectly exempt however
and might enter whether atheist,
Christian, Buddhist, Shinto or
not part of a private sect.
Yet what they encounter in\
side these gates shall stay
unsaid at present.
