Light Show
Glamorous designs bright lights
capture the imagination,
Alice in wonderland
may be a hypothetical fixation
with the play of one’s hand,
The adrenaline rush to defeat all odds
Some gain momentum others aren’t too lucky
Loud cheers explode like bombs hitting their targets
Sad faces emerge as if unable to cash in
Devastating results as a result of not cashing in
Tearing apart bonds that were compounded
Loss of personal wealth
Looks dumbfounded
A smart individual stays well rounded
Stop, while you’re ahead
Your mind’s playing tricks on you
The worries in your eyes
and the southern direction of your smile
should be the sign to get up and walk away.
It’s all a light show
