Turning Away from the Streets

Convicted Creations “Poetry for the Ghetto Soul” was written while the author was in a correctional rehab program for over a year.

D.R. Wilson is twenty years old and was hooked on drugs and booze by the time he was thirteen.

These poems are written in street slang and are not for everyone, they speak of a world on the “other side” that most of us have never touched and are scared to believe exists.

“Do not be fooled into thinking that you could never cross over to this world, or that the one you love will not be touched—D.R. holds nothing back, his thoughts and fears are laced with the bitter truth, in these pages there is no escape, no way to cover up, or hide!”

Convicted Creations, Poetry for the Ghetto Soul is dedicated not to the ones lost and on the streets, the truth for them is an every day reality and only they will be able to find the light to guide them from the darkness, this is dedicated to the souls about to cross over, for they no not what they are about to endure- D.R. Wilson
