I see you standing there every night
Beside the pillar, half shadows, half light
Yet your body shrieks out intent
Like a signboard. Neon.
….
Barely of legal age
The beast within with makeup you tame
Yet it cannot conceal your rage
Roaring like wildfire. Neon.
….
A peaon to the hunger of the flesh
In hushed tones your body you trade
Yet they cannot barter your soul
Scorching white in agony. Neon.
