It's Vegas Baby
September 24, 2018
It's Vegas Baby!
It’s dry, flaky skin,
It’s bright skinny lights,
It’s begging, cardboard-holding hobos.
It’s Vegas Baby!
It’s littered streets,
It’s slot machines and poker,
It’s disease-carrying prostitutes.
It's Vegas Baby!
It’s imprisoned teenagers,
It’s flashy shows,
It’s childless parents.
It’s Vegas Baby!
It’s students without desks,
It’s wicked clubs
It’s date rape tablets.
It's Vegas Baby!
It’s brian altering drugs,
It’s rock concerts and rap specialties,
It’s the biggest mass shooting.
It’s Vegas Baby.
It’s my childhood home.
