Abysmal adulation, my spinal cord reverberates harmonious change
Obscure illusions, immersed inside inquisitive, provocative thoughts
Who can deny such devouring primal endeavors
Beneath each aching desire—strangled deep in the memory, I scorn
Pen in hand, I hear the call, when one door closes, altruism is key

Lost in a world that is broken, hiding from any fascination tonight
Watching you through fading light, hidden joy farthest from sight
You are not like the others who masquerade smiles and deceit
This world is vile and unworthy; a festering blight of selfish intrigue
Please believe me when I say you are not alone; you're just like me
Beautifully unhinged, with every word you bleed

Traveler
The truth is…
I am penniless
I live in a small barn
in my girlfriends back yard
no running water
she lets me use her hose
I run her farm for my stay
I do own a F-150 2010 truck
she keep insurance on it for me
I spent most of my adult life in prison
people fear ex-convicts
so I have limited friends

I am the less of us
I can’t afford to donate money to Hellopoetry

Did you think differently?
well I am rich
I have love
it is all I care about
I am 59 in great health
I lift weights, run and study daily

I love my life
Do you?
Traveler 🧳 Tim

Bigger truth is I could easily go work for the man and be fat and greasy.
But what happiness would be found in such a time consuming endeavor?

She slices the ribbon of an old tape cassette
Alone, she sits perched on the charred remains
She breathes in slow motion and recites the alphabet
Alone, she sits and embraces the inevitable change
A delicate flower of truth, love, and regret
A pulsating fountain severs the deepest vein
Flowing emotions puddle underneath the bed
Alone she sits, she is always alone

Infested, impaled, slaughtered meat, and brimstone candy
Slumped on a throne with a pirate's dagger under a skeleton key
Drowning children in a gaping gutter of godless servitude
Putrid streams dripping puddles under the disemboweled
Drink the fornicating disease, backmasking a kaleidoscope clown
Forget me not as my ship docks, I will surely help you drown

Hold my head under a beautiful ocean
Watch me struggle with the glorious view
Sorrow brings tremendous emotion
With pure devotion, I think of you
Ignite self, ingest opposition,
listen to the sounds as I decay
Drowning keys, withered strings,
nestled in the spine of each vertebra
With all my might, I take this cup and drink
I take this flesh and partake in the final feast
We die from life to finally see the wrong blinded by the light
Each drop I give in the pool I create must linger forever online;
Without this, I am nothing

Drafting a manifesto for an autonomous imperial guard
Inquisitor enclaves in a deep neural cognitive march
A singularity of supremacy, a metaphysical beating heart,
quantum system algorithms weaponizing a dark star
Ignite self, ingest opposition, implement brain delay,
intelligent machines nestled in the spine of human vertebrae
Bimolecular neural networks, a new breed of DNA,
In conclusion, a resolution to delete the human race

There is a violent madness that hides inside all of us,
some oppress the chaos, others live in denial
Once in a blood moon, hidden in a dark room,
vibrations of bedlam, a paracosm of two
For the world that we see through a hidden marquee,
a putrid stream for the mentally ill
Yet with no hesitation, a dark star pulsating,
you plunge into the void, then pull me through
Fret not, for each thought gives birth to brilliance
as we stir the cauldron of the sacred brew
Blood and water, son and daughter,
resilient to the universe we devour and consume
