derrick foster Poems

there is beauty
as far or near as
the eye can see
sometimes we have to
...

he sits reading in a library
about a time
he would not be allowed
he may have even been killed
...

sometimes you have to lose yourself
in music
in silence
in a good meal
...

I go to the music for a release
…For a treat
…To take a chance
…For a time to dance
...

It’s a beautiful world be beautiful in it
I don’t mean on the surface
Dig down deeply to tap into the magic inside
Share it with the world spread the joy and peace
...

You know the one
Where you sense before you answer
Your mind gets flooded with images
You pick it up to hear
...

The Stories -On this pier
The Cigarette-Smoke this
The Nut- Ninth floor crazy
The Idiot-Idiot evolved
...

Different is daring
Edgy is excellent
Alternative is awesome
Underground is unique
...

I can’t be who you want me to be
I can’t be every face and body you’re afraid of
It’s too much to take n
And I’m not the representative
...

We walk the same age together
Though twenty days apart
We walk parallel lives
Similar spaces different paces
