Los Angeles

Far away looking,
Like a city of gold,
Like it is on fire,
With love's flame.

But if you watch closer,
You will see some strange,
Its not only love and care,
Roaming these streets.

If I was you I would keep,
Myself in the light of the lamps,
For I have seen what happens in,
The dark allies of gangs.

These are dangerous times,
If your not careful,
Your experience of this angel,
Will turn into a demon.

But there is also goodness,
In this city is a shape,
Of an angels gang,
Fighting the crime.

You see, that is who I am,
I am a proud member,
Of the angel city gang,
Rescuing strays like you.

Now go back into the street light,
Go enjoy the love this city has,
But keep in mind dear friend,
Stay away from the dark.
