Soaking Up the Sounds

He wished it to be  full of sound.
round about the way successful
collaborations are done.
Fun: done: and Right.
Sought of like taking the featured
artist's position and elaborating on it.
People still love rock, urban 
contemporary grooves
and soulful bassey pieces.The stigma
around marriage
seems to cause discussion.
Is it good news? The two lovers united:
or one lover and one willingful participant.
Or one eager and one uneagerly: but willing
to be. A new position appointed by the direction
of the evolution in sequence. from 
stranger to friend to lover
to fiancce?fiancé: then to wife or husband.
WeIrDO. than non be alienated through such
sequence.
Six saxophones
11 bass instruments
a rhythm section
the motif uses two classic guitars.
 A 1939 English Clifford Essex Paragon
and a  Bass Alembic Series
He Brazen I'm Kabosh
we are Kings of the Coliseum!
The Grand Inspector sings
and the
Brazen Serpent commands.

Inner Fires

An artist’s canvas stretched , a matricide
Saturday was shopping then a walk
Epping,Ongar,Finchingfield by car
Reading book reviews and chewing stalks
Buttercups and meadows,Henry Moore

Driving back from Chelmsford, cornfields flamed
Smoke and fire and earth, the sun dismayed
Farmers working hard,  a harvest, grain
The sky  through mist a cobalt  blue displayed

Standon with its fords and wandering cows
Little rivers,Essex, flowing down
The Stort joins with the Lea,a gurglimg sound
Water for the Thames  and mossy ground

The earth feels like my body sacrificed
An artist’s canvas stretched , a matricide

From one film to the other, your creative styles,
Rebels joined, save a world, then you, sacrificed a girl,
Online programmers that you had caused their riles,
Mr. Santino wanted New York as part of his world,

New bodies agents inhabit, mafia's list, you've been added,
Earned right to learn 'new school', while brother played you for a fool,
Oracle knew that you're the one, as bodies piled while on the run,

Trinity loved you, that you knew, with a price on your head, all wanted you,
Only machines rule off humans' body heat, get Santino, so to be complete,

Just when things weren't cooling down, Cassian searched all over town,
Of the agents, leader wanted to get ahead, on the train, he wanted John dead,
His team want to rescue their own, Cassian he warned, or he wont be around,
Neo wanted to go alone, instead, but Winston told John, "Not here", he said,

World saw the light, Neo did the trick, John didn't have it, he must split quick,
In rousing dance, chants, people are one, eyes o'er shoulders, he's on the run,
Can Neo have a new machines flick, more dinner reservations, 3rd John Wick,
Keanu's versatile--better to none, persona and lifestyle, simply being #1.

Fosse Way

Legend of Fosse Way

Riding hard under a moonlight high 
not a leaf rustling and it troubles my mind
In the distance there's music of the lyre and flute 
rippling over the moors
Serenading the stars  
The voice of a maiden
bleeds it's way through the thick darkness
Singing an ole Bawdy Pub Song.
My steed swift at a gallop
hooves sound their click clack
As we cross Halford Bridge
No time to be wasted 
seeking comfort at the Inn
History demands I deliver this message
The dispatch I carry holds the future of England
I must make Exeter Castle by dawn.
No matter the risk or danger I encounter
It is crucial that I press on
Two Queens vying for the throne of England
Not even God can decide which be the righteous one 
Protestant or Catholic not the reason for choice
A Queen must have love for Mother England  
coursing through her blood

Forrest fairies ring the bells on the Fox Glove 
The Oaks without expression and still
A rare breeze slaps the sleeping grasses in the glades
In the marsh toads croak complaint to night’s chill
This road is dominion of Highwaymen and thieves 
Robbing those that choose this way to travel.
By the will of God and the Bishop's blessing 
I will pass undetected by scoundrels and rabble
Nourished only on bread and Brambleberries 
Traveling in the cover of night taking sleep by day
All that I've seen are ghosts of Roman soldiers
On this thoroughfare known as Fosse Way

If by the hand of God or the Devil 
I meet with an untimely death
And I am unable to tell tale of this ride
Let not my story meet the same fate
Say my name Nigel Foster be mentioned in yarns  
told in pubs and taverns .
History will decide if I am a Patriot or Traitor
As a result of my actions
When the years pass into the future 
Don't let me be a lost memory of yesterday
If by chance may I live on
as one of the many legends
The many legends of Fosse Way.

Inspired by Alfred Noyes poem “The Highwayman"
And in memory of my distant relative, 
Robert Devereux 2nd Earl of Essex.

BBC belongs to you and me


Tell those little sh*ts to get their grubby mitts off our adored BBC

Applaud our global player & noble naysayer slayer lobal pedigree 

Proof sleuth with facts truth acts & fights spoofs aloof uncouth pacts

Boorish bores banging on more doors scores culture wars at all hours

Sod off you toff …from the off this creation belongs to the nation is ours

Beacons lights..Aunty's moreish delights & rights wrongs for you & me.. 

The BBC

 
Want views on that ruse which skews slews media does confuse 

Paul & Ian with their peers spurn amuse burn abuse turn the screws

Politicians churn flee the crew on their pews glee at taking the pee 

Cheers for 30 years of you know who.. Have I got News for You

The BBC


The tally of trail blazing skits..wits rally with amazing gambits & hits 

Us all gladder for the traitors creators or scribes jibes of Blackadder

Del boy joy rapscallion with medallion rules..only fools & horses 
 
BBC our greatest cultural forces can be racy & pacy going doolally 

Partridge in a flair tree or nothing can scare her..Sarah in Happy Valley

Or might reckon Barry does marry Essex should beckon.. Gavin & Stacey

The BBC


A fix of the world’s best radio mix…our choice the alternative voice of 6

Caress finesse of TMS ..best way to end Saturday bless Match of the Day

All the classical Pom aplomb from a night at the Proms in the Albert Hall

London realms cover to cover from that other older brother Robert Elms

Our plea she must be free to bewitch so don't bit*h & ditch the licence fee 

The BBC 


Which is why especially today I say Aunty…our everlasting British Broadcasting corporation  

Ignore twits & gits & with the rest of the nation..thanks for casting our cultural celebration

I lean on you..critics in a tizz hither thither we dithers it "Withers" lean on me...love u to bits!

Won’t lie will tell us why.. the objective high vis collective “WE” …that is and could only be 

The BBC

Can't biff the Pontiff

Dope boundary rope tropes…fans hopes..Ollie copes..thick skin…will find the strength within…ignores the din…as Pope unleashes that boyish grin..

Can hear Freddie and David…ddddd..Under Pressure…well..hard to measure the pleasure of the Pope’s treasure…papacy legacy pride..stops the slide..trumps the prodigy..got a ton to shun outgun..dumps the Bethell puns..rested and bested..still in at stumps.. after Stokes plumps for tried and tested..

Nasty ploys from the seedier media boys…that gambit or slight..of weedier..needier skittish rabbit in the floodlight habit..but such poise..delights despite the noise.. fights the red hot slingshot Jasprit highlights...that iconic.. chronic.. metronomic…never laconic..halcyon harbinger..joy bringer..humdinger swinger gunslinger....

Who’s got a clue what to do…where it will land…understand what the Bumrah brand’s got planned…should be banned…can’t watch it from the hand..love watching it from the stand..tames games…fanned flames…big names castles manned..but the sparkle of another debacle shames and blames…panned and canned..

Doff your hat…scoff..from the off…Test cricket doesn’t get harder than that…time we beckoned..back when Goochie opined…Essex accent whined..reckoned like facing the World’s test best one end.. and tother Ilford second eleven..   

It was a story of small standing tall demanding another dance at the Bumrah ball as the diddy men zen of Ollie and Ben gave us a chance and dodged.. not bodged by the Jasprit lance

Even the boom boom cherry riff couldn’t biff the Pontiff of who we are so fond…no what if..made merry with his tintin strawberry blonde quiff in this tiff did respond..

Golly gosh the another level devil..tabloid tosh of him getting Bethell bish bash boshed…losing the race.. will never forget Ollie’s jolly face…gleaming…day dreaming yet screaming to those scheming and memeing…fury at the jury…beaming…the adored Pope ruled..his grace.. Dueled with the ultimate pace ace…an up yours…century scores…our faith restores ..Ollie.. rightly put out…brightly glowed..showed us what he’s all about..loud..proud shout to the crowd who know nowt…want him out…made it clear..peers cheers he holds dear..my best at your behest ..so sincere.. I deserve my Test place and rest my case..!  Hear Hear..

Costa Del Boy Essex?

Their ma & pa were Eastenders 

Blah blah..don’t remember the Blitz

Brash Cockney pretenders..same flash apparel

Let's get our mitts on a stash of Aperol spritz


Dimwits just going on benders

Bawdy tawdry mockney skits

Gits getting off their t*ts

Twits showing off their bits

Who fits?..Identikit Brits..pout

All about the clout of gaudy glitz


Silhouettes of stiletto dancers & handbags

Riff raff as naff as an 80’s cornetto

Perms & permatans..sl*gs..fancy dans in glad rags

Rhyming slang falsetto twang libretto


Chancers on a stag..s*ag nip & tuck hags

Nags of WAGS made up to the nines

Brag after cocaine lines did blag

One snag..look like a dag in drag


All from the fashion label stable

No restraint.. cannot refrain

Grandstand the brands fable 

Diadora diaspora ..Fila Villa

With a Pierre Cardin Jardin

Taint just like they do in Spain


Sex..success…the way you dress

Prosecco fizz...getting in a tizz

Gilded specs and builded pecs


Greed and that need to impress

Avoid don't feed this schadenfreude hell 

That is indeed called Costa Del ESSEX

Premium Member The Streets of Olde Salem

My footsteps echoed the echoes of Time
as through the streets of Salem I walked.
The hour was early and the city still asleep
with only a cat sitting quietly on a cold granite sill,
the sky slowly turning from night into dawn,
my mind still in twilight as my footsteps echoed on.

The Ropes Mansion looked proud
as I strolled Essex Street,
its pediments and roof balustrades all stately,
its fence posts freshly painted
and hydrangea all in bloom.
I faintly heard voices
of a long-ago family
gathered about the hearth
in its fine parlor room.

I passed the Athenaeum 
and hailed this library noble, so renowned
its soaring columns and arched doorway
have welcomed countless seekers of knowledge 
and those sharing the wisdom of learning
and the comfort of reading from volumes well-bound.

Ten generations of Pickerings
have lived in the 1660 house 
situated on 18 Broad.
A descendant, Timothy Pickering
under George Washington had served 
and witnessed the surrender of Cornwallis’ sword.
I admired the house’s gables, its unique fence and its posts 
then journeyed along to find more of Olde Salem’s ghosts.

At the Broad Street Cemetery
just steps across the street 
I tipped my hat to those 
who once lived here
now in honest sleep
at the second oldest resting place
in Salem Town.
But I shook my head over the grave
of High Sheriff Corwin of the Witchcraft Trial
beneath his time-weathered obelisk
he must be tossing for all Eternity
in his dank unholy ground.

For the true ghosts of Olde Salem
haunt the air of Proctor’s Ledge
where 19 innocents all
swung in the 1692 breeze
and it was there at the edge
of this hillside they died
overlooking a town
where too many had been tried.

How real was their torture
how sad was their pain
and in their lonely silence
do they relive it all again?
And when it all was over,
all said and all done
Salem would feel cursed
for its unforgivable deeds
that could not be undone,
for as I walk the streets
of Olde Salem
in the still-early morn,
I see their spirits all around me
along these sidewalks old and worn.

A Swinging Sixties Chick

A swinging sixties chick was I dressed head to toe in Biba
Miniskirts my mother loathed and free love too, so I was told
Music of choice was Motown and Soul that played upon my radio
At weekends tuned to Saturday Club a programme never missed
Radio Luxembourg each night, though signal crackled and hissed
Reception was weak as twilight approached, with my radio under my sheet
At the foot of the stairs Mum’s voice could be heard 
     “Turn that radio off, and go to sleep”

In ‘62 a pirate ship launched off the Essex coast
Radio Caroline was her name, with young DJ’s as programme hosts
Innovators of their time, played songs we loved the most
Enjoying the challenge, but taking a risk each time they went ashore
Deemed illegal ~ no license had they, so were technically breaking the law
Trailblazing times enhancing our lives, playing songs never heard of before 
     these songs were the soundtracks of my youth 
          these songs I love and adore...

Tony Blackburn their first DJ; a handsome young fella back in the day
The first DJ to spin his discs whilst bobbing around on the pirate ships
At 77 still playing his songs and boring the nation with corny quips
on ‘Sounds of the Sixties’ every Saturday morn
     he plays the tunes 
          I singalong...

I sent a request for his 'Magic Moments' spot
feeling sure it would end up in his 'magic melting pot' 
Our 'Magic Moment' in '63, as we danced the night away 
at the Regent Ballroom, Brighton, on a floor made of wooden parquet
     was it love at first sight on a midsummer’s night 
          by the light of the silvery moon...

As we danced to the Chiffons 'He’s so Fine' it became our special tune

When Tony played our 'Magic Moment' on his radio show
     I could hardly believe my ears
          then my eyes filled up with tears

for my darling he has gone ~ for he died ten years ago


Written on 1st December 2018 
     after hearing my request played upon the Radio...
