Despite the comments about “everybody makes mistakes” this is a really great interview with friends who’ve done music gigs with Ashley Alexandra Dupre. See sex workers are people with real friends and personal relationships and we’re not all damaged and disfunctional.

Tutela Valui
2004
The caterpillar eats.
The car crashes.
The caterpillar crawls.
You’re adrift.
You crawl back up.
You spin your cocoon,
And emerge a butterfly.
Your wings unfold.
You are Valui.
You drink the nectar
Voraciously.
Nothing can stop you.
You’re sleek and stylish.
Fast and roaring.
Little Red Corvette.
2006
Vice kkkops!
You run and hide.
You fold in your wings.
Tutela help!
You crouch down
And slip out the back door.
You lie low.
The danger passes.
Thank you, Tutela.
Your wings spread again.
You are experienced.
A professional.
You are Tutela
and Valui.
2008
I am the Tutela.
I am Valui.
The Butterfly.
But you can’t see that.
You distort me.
Client 9 behave.
Client 9 wear your glove,
or else no love.
That’s what it means.
Tutela Valui.
This time they caught me.
The vice kkkops.
“We’ll clip your wings,”
they say
“You’ll whore
the prison guards.”
they say
Ahhhhhhhh, but not so fast.
Your scarlet letter
is threadbare.
Your stockade,
rusty.
I sing like Aretha.
My regulars miss me.
Thousands of men,
wannabe Client 10.
Sleazy Port Authority?
Don’t you mock me.
I’m in a New York
State of Mind,
Takin’ the Greyhound
Down the Turnpike-River-Line.
A cab from Jersey?
The client better pay.
Tutela Valui.
