My Home Town - A Poem by John H Shelton

See the sunshine shining. Feel my blood and temperature rising. See the gangs get rowdy and start a fight. Bikes and cars are speeding Down a busy highway Never want to see the light Through curtains as I lie awake at night. In these times of chaos Chaos comes at a price of fun It's a bit of fun until the passion dies. Roll up, roll up, see the tension falling. As I leave this town crawling behind. To a new beginning. Get on a train and never look behind. When all is said and done We've all had some fun. Look after yourself and be careful not to let your spark die. Keep in mind your existence. We only get one chance at life. Just stop living on the edge of a knife.
