Devils Playground

the lights, the sounds
the smells; so enticing  
the devils playground
where demons dwell  

lurking, watching, waiting 
eagerly anticipating 
innocent bystanders 
souls unaware 
caught off guard 
by the devils snare 

trapped on a 
merry-go-round of sin, 
spinning out of control 
so called fun
the devils laughing,
damage is well done 

the lights, the sounds
the smells, your own personal hell.
