"baltimore"

Baltimore is like the demon’s playground he rats and roaches are screaming and running to cans and bottles abandoned houses to run through like a play house hallway frames left standing from burned houses to swing on stairways to climb up and find cool stuff to play with streets filled with popped sports balls and rag dolls plastic bags decorate the trees and bushes like it’ a party glass looks like diamonds he makes it all look good to people who don’t care fire in a closed bottle explode like fire works it’s fun in the demon’s eyes danger is fun to him and he need some playmates you hear another house scream as it burns down Baltimore demonvill is what it is called now when that demon is sleep we humans take over us when he is gone Baltimore will be back to beautiful full of good safe fun and nice houses with lovely families clean streets some real playgrounds that are clean till then danger is so much fun to him
