Derek Fitzpatrick Poems

Truth,
Do not quoth love & hate
For,
They are spoken too often.
...

This ancient opaque Palace
Walls running red
Of regret & malice
As blood..
...

Death,
Follow the leader,
Wisdom bleek,
Name thy deity,
...

Can you speak to your soul?

Am I alone?
...

Tribal Phoenix's
Shake their spears,
Empowering weaknesses
Shunning hate & fear
...

We've bled out the clocks
Can't run,
When butterflies stop
Father Time was a son.
...

I ain't sleepin' baby..


The light just stings my eyes
...

Two things proven right
Together,
May not be true.
Let me remind you..
...

Angel in my head?
Not a halo.
Demon's caress the dead
Far..from fatal.
...

If my soul made a noise..
It'd scream for release, depart..

Yet, sound like a Muzzle.
Porcelain hearts, broken apart
...
