Can any part of life
be larger than life?
Those who think they know it all
lingers in the basement
of all knowing!
Traveler Tim

And if the band yer in
Starts playing different tunes
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon!

Bed Alone

In my waking
The chaos sinks
I waist no time
To stop and think

The moment is now
I ponder my world
My deadlines
My children
My special girl

Pet my dogs
Sip my coffee
Hit a bowl
Write a poem

Work out
Play guitar
Walk in nature
Off I go
To bed alone
Traveler Tim

I’m going to get a job one of these days...
NOT!

Sometimes we
outgrow people
who don't
water us anymore

I've lost my novelty
I'm no longer the shiny new toy that held your attention
I've lost your interest
I'm no longer that person

You let the sparks fly
And the ignition start
The fire in the pit
Put out in the dark

Now cigarettes are all I taste
Numbing it down with scotch
Tingling sensations
I try not to take it to heart
'Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me?'

in the cemetery, no one marries, she
weeps for the fallen, for the widows and
the spinsters, she cries at the nights as
she lays on satin pillows and prays for the
generals to all hang on the gallows.

I sat in a place of peace and sweetness,
my thoughts became poetry.

on the world of table
shadows are far away
afew dreams comes only

If I had a big paper plane
I would be a pilot of it
And visit your dreams

Tell me a story
I want to fall in love with a character
And forget myself inside a sway of frightful emotions

Tell me a story
About sailors, lovers, monks, and businessmen. About the end of the world. About sleepless nights

Tell me about the poet
Who lived in the woods. The forgetful snow of Canadian Decembers. The lifecycle of a Grizzly Bear

Convince me
That life is but a dream
That if we only try hard enough
We could create a happy ending

Convince me
That life has a beginning and an end.
That every human being is unique
That all of us is worth remembering

Tell me a story
A story to be told in my deathbed
While I fight for an ounce of attention
To hear another human being
