)
Bright flickering neon lights
seduce the young with their glow.
And flash sexual delights,
hinting at more yet to show.
Youth views what is in plain sight;
through the optics of a teen.
And searches the bars at night;
for a world they've never seen.
The young are easily fooled
by all the hype and glitter.
But, the naive soon get schooled;
tossed out like back street litter.
Exposed to degrees of fright,
living shadows skulk and dart.
And late at night, out of sight,
their bravado falls apart.
