Derek Earl Houghton Poems

Welcome my blog. The intention is to publish every piece of writing that I have churned out for the past 10 years. Some pieces have a story behind the story, some lyrical poems have become songs. We have hundreds of poems, stories, songs, lyrics, and life musings. Subscribe and every Monday receive a story to start off your week. Art is created by Amina & AI.

Some of us bleed champagne. Do not hold these brothers and sisters to blame

but it is propitious to observe their intentions. They are more human than awareness

Would ever suggest and they don’t hold themselves to account.

He was filled with delicious longing for the unseen

Things seen during day to day life  gave rise to his imaginings.

There was darkness and cruelty to be certain, but the  sweet substrate,

that  undulating plasmic ocean within which all things announce themselves

to the senses hinted at incredible wonders soon  to be revealed

and  magic hitherto not even slightly  imagined

Her beauty stalked him, like a summer storm, and before he could run for cover , he was drenched with her presence.
