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

   Coming in over "LA" I knew I was in trouble

It instantly hits you, the streets strewn with garbage, tumbleweed grocery bags, in the fake plastic land of milk and honey and broken dreams

"LA" is full of fifteen million fakers on the make

   Those who don't work, bleed but don't freeze

      It's like being in India with a bad hairdo

Actors are just another dog jumping through a hoop

You could end up being a waiter for a lifetime

How do they stay the course with nothing but bread crumbs for hope

There's nothing else to believe in (that's how the Artist does it).

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