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

                  They're just another ordinary
                  Eating and pooping machine
                             Praying to God
                      And wearing bonnets.

Poetry from the book {Bunny Hop} by Artist Troy Richard Thomas

               Life is a mystery, life is a sham

                    Life goes down in flames

             No one cares which way you fall

       I stand in the cold lands burning with fire

I am alone but for the rocks and trees and the mini bear that steals crumbs from my hand

It is a pity I don't get to see her anymore, someone to destroy the boredom and warm my toes

With only the stars over head, I search for her face

          A million pebbles gather on my body

                     I can't push them away

            A trillion thorns push into my skin

  My life is lost when my lips no longer kiss her

      I paint a golden person on a golden cross

Life is lost in the disarray and chaos of humankind

               You must gather all the pieces

                       And sweep them away.
