The girl on the highway
flags me down
and I pull over
she offers me 20 dollars
or to sit on my lap
for a ride to Joshua Tree
says she missed the bus
I let her in
she spots a dragonfly applique
on my dashboard
she shows me
her dragonfly tattoo
says she knows
I'm a good person
and halfway there
she slips 4 dollars
between my legs
she says I'm sorry
I promised you 20
but I only have 6
and I need 2
for the bus ride back.

A great little poem, to or not, it certainly rings true for me having picked up girls along the highway heading this way or that.
