Staring On Sunset

Perched near the bend where Sunset slides From infamy to ecstasy I watch the summer roll and stroll, as the parade of cars, stars and those hiding within themselves Fuel the sun to ensure Its on-time for its casting couch audition with the all-hands blue sky and tainted orange-red cousins looking to turn an LA trick into thin air Sex bleeds inadvertently with each smile, tush, rack and package willing to come out and play youth is eternal Whether you're undergraduate or overfortunate Slick shades hiding the clear and present danger fit for the unintended consequences waiting down the Boulevard its Summer its Sunset And dreams are in store.
