Troy Town by CyberCorn Entropic

Troy Town

CyberCorn Entropic

Tonight, Amethyst du Sciur proudly presents two apples sweet and a poem.

(O Troy Town!)

But I don't think you were paying too much attention to the poem, the first stanza of "Troy Town".

It could use some shading, but I got tired of getting around to figuring out how to do that in Inkscape.

I learned of this poem from Piers Anthony, who had been inspired to create a character for one of his novels after reading it.

(O Troy's down,
Tall Troy's on fire!)

      An ode to someone's breasts? I'm sure a lot of the boys and maybe some girls would certainly go for that. :p
      Thanks. I'd actually like to do more of this sort of illustrated poetry, but it's not that easy finding poems that I can recognize as suggestive and yet not have profanity in them. Although, arguably, the poem need not always be suggestive in and of itself, I suppose. Something worth my considering, anyway.

        True, and interpretations can vary too, so that could affect what strikes your fancy.
        Hope you have fun with it!

          And get the ambition to do it. That's always been the hard part lately. :(

            Know the feeling well, I do! Depression ain't fun! Medications help, but ambition is still difficult.
