Red Light District

Short shorts skirts and spike heeled shoes In the Red light District of your town On the darkened street corners There's pleasures of the flesh to be found. Blondes, brunettes and redheads Working girls they are. They earn their living selling flesh To hungry men with expensive cars. In the Red light District of your town Law Enforcement lies in wait. To persecute and to arrest Using decoys as bait. You'd think that the Police Would have better things to do. The streets are filled with criminals That prey on me and you. Cheap Motels and alcohol In the Red light District of your town. No matter what your looking for Cheap Thrills do abound.

Another great poem Brian. I do worry about these working girls (and boys). I believe that if this is their choice to do this, that's fine, but I worry about human trafficking. Just maybe , that is what the police are worried about also. Take care Lee
