Poetry from the book {Prometheus Lives} by Artist Troy richard Thomas

                        Out on Venice Beach

                 Here are the real meat eaters

               And homicide trick or treaters

          This is where the chicanos take over

The palm reader tells me I have a bright future ahead of me

He predicts a bad future if you don't lay your money down

A guy sitting in his own feces burns predictions into driftwood shaped like a monkeys ear lobe

The fellows show off their muscles while I walk around with my knobby white knees

You can't help but watch the pussy, it's so exuberant

It's a fashion show on wheels with hardly anything on at all

The women are putting themselves up for sale and acting like they don't know it

      They drink water here like it was wine

          And you know why, because it is.

Poetry from the book {Prometheus Lives} by Artist Troy Richard Thomas
