EXTRAVAGANT DARKNESS -Poetry

I walk the streets of Vegas

With my son by my side.

Where has decency gone?

We are surrounded by pleasure and pride.

Drugs cloud the mind of the decent,

Good people stumble from booze.

While at the gambling tables,

Much needed money they lose.

Oh, Vegas is so sexy.

Glamour and lies everywhere.

Sensual desires met,

By traps made to ensnare.

Hold onto your value and honor,

Don’t throw it away for one night.

Step away from the extravagant darkness,

And cling to your morals and sense of right.
