Poetry from the book { The Lion and the Sun} by Artist Troy Richard Thomas

              You keep on crying and dying
               Your body begins to fail you
           Societies dream goes up in smoke
        There's nothing here for you anymore
  The morgue awaits you with its smiling people
                Filled with schadenfreude
        You don't always get what you want
        You get what you need (the basics)
The kind of people who get everything they want
                    Aren't worth a damn.
