SLEAZY
Traveler Jul 2016
As the wind
Blew her skirt up
There was so
Much more to see

I never new
Our government
Could be so ****

It's hard to support the establishment after you've seen her naked.

TRAVEL WARNING
Traveler Dec 2018
The world ran me down
And then ran me over
I may never see straight
I may never be sober
Yet
Cheers to you
I wish you the best
Love is a maze
Life is a test
Be well as you travel
The worlds that you know
Beyond the shadows
Life takes it's toll!

SNOW QUEEN
Traveler Mar 2015
She bound my soul in the frozen tundra
A thousand years I lay waste
My ship and crew had long since perished
My guardian angel without a trace

Frostbitten bitter arctic memories
Flee the howling changing wind
As she cast eyes on the nearest star
To steal the fire held within

Days of our youth freeze then crumble
Innocence fading shortly dies
Remainders of our icy palace
And a heart deceived in frozen lies

I pity her now as my soul thaws
To a world where warmth is in season
Yet there’s always a shiver when I remember
How quickly love changed to treason

DOUBT REMAINS

THEORIES
Traveler Aug 2014
Theories of existence
We carry to the grave
Where the laws of the living
Are left in dismay

Our limited state of knowing
Is purely subjective at best
The ultimate may never be known
A theory so many detest

Fortunately logic dictates
It’s all the way up
And all the way down
Entropy has two arrows
These quantum theories
Do confound…

TWO CENTS END
Traveler Dec 2017
Somewhere
In a twisted
Loop of time
  Separate from yesterday
We were left behind
Popping in
Mostly out
Of sight and mind
A whispering shout
Echoing rhymes
Mere memories
Imprinted strong
Desperation thrives
In the early dawn

When real were things
Larger than soul
Mightier where misfits
Dared to roll
To bitter end
And back again
Inside of cave
Where meaning descend
In darker places
We all have been

And so we put
Our two cents in...

Slay The Beast
Traveler Mar 2024
(censored)
It don't matter if you chop the head off the beast, the head keeps growing back. Changing from blue to red now back to blue, evil is clearly on track.
Yet how many more heads do we need to chop, to **** the beast and make this stop?

No need to censor the sword,
it's simply a gift from the Lord!

SMOKE AND NIGHTMARES
Traveler Apr 2016
Rungs on the ladder
Where my life began
I talked with God
I rarely sinned
Just a troubled child's
Imaginary friend
Yet I turned to God
The self comfort within

When I turned
Young man
I searched again
In every church and bible
To find my old friend
I searched at the Buddha
Zen and then Tao
Deepak Chopra
Wasn't my style

Science was my nightmare
It made perfect sense
So I turned to philosophy
Now I'm on the fence

Yet how could a young child
Ever have known
That all those miracles
Were mere tricks of the souls...
507 · Sep 2017
FASCINATING
Traveler Sep 2017
Fascinating how we can live
Holding on tightly to the past
If our memories serve us well
Perhaps it profits us to make them last
Memories of love and laughter
Some of tragedies and fear
All collected by our senses
The things we see, feel and hear

Driven by a common motivation
We seek relationships unending
The love of parents for their children
Is far beyond comprehending
And so the joy we share today
Are memories I'll hold forevermore
Cause the memories I have of you
Are the ones I most adore
To all my children.

Chicken Soup From The Coop
Traveler Nov 2019
Strutting like a rooster
In the hen house of love
Crowing and a pecking
At a pigeon then a dove

Spurs *****
Feathers flying
I struck and stuck
A duck just lying

Fertile are the eggs
My girls tend to lay
Let them hatch
Or eat them
With some bacon
If you crave

My meat no longer tender
Unlike the farmers pig
They won't eat me for dinner
And so I get to live

Strutting in this farm yard
I surely have the life
****-a-do-doe-do
I crow
With all my might!!
..........................
Traveler Timi

The neighbors rooster somehow got into our yard which is surrounded by 6 foot fences and is having a good time with all of our hens of course we don’t have roosters because who wants to hear them ******* all day, they fertilize your eggs and besides that when I had them before they spurred me they’re lucky to be alive you know

O­h ionic sky above
Let loose your naughty rain
Crash your clouds in thunder
White lightening flash in vain
Hydrate this thirsty dryness
Plaguing my barren glands
Set forth her winds a blowing
From where sweet love began

......................................­­...............

B­lizzards, tornadoes, hurricanes
and typhoons
The Mother Nature of me
wants to stir the storms of you
My deepest desires dwelling inside my mind
Hitting my heart like thunder and lightning
Sparks intensified
Walking on clouds dreaming of you
Spinning in whirlwinds my teardrops of truth’s
Catch me for I’m falling from heaven above
With the wants of kissing your angel lips of love

.......................................­...................­­..­.........

Flower of the morning dew
My gods approve of only you
Wisdom of my sins ascend
Guide my wonder to your ends
To where the storms begin

......................................­...................­­...­.........

A mighty volcano burning deep down within
Raging passion swirling a cyclone of sins
Drenched in a downpour of lust
An eruption of showers quenching our thirst
Changing the atmosphere as our bodies collide
The binding of our hearts together
forever entwined
Infinite our love boundless by time
For I am Yours and You are mine

Forgetful mindedness
And a feeling of dread
Suffocating poetic thoughts

Line by line
Written down

THE SLUMBERING
Traveler Jan 2017
Likable the devil's role
As the ruler of the meek
Who abandoned hell
Where once he fell
Left his Mark
Upon the freaks
The wicked lie
Behind his eyes
Where the Mighty
Falls to ghost
I would never
Not abandon life
And no one
  Shall suffer most...

There upon their slumbering beds
The dreamers lost in dreams
I could never wake you up
Before the gathering

So wait for me a lifetime through
Familiar souls entwined
I shall always find you
Beyond the other side

BECOMING AWARE
Traveler Jan 2015
Becoming aware, I break from my stare
And wonder how long I’ve been dreaming
The time has come to fight or run
Which sets my busy mind scheming

In my defense I take an awkward swing
What consequence shall my actions bring
To cover the truth or to blatantly lie
Is all the same, it festers inside

Becoming aware, I break from my stare
And wonder if perhaps I'm dreaming

CRYING RHYMES
Traveler Mar 2017
How do you form
Such feelings with rhymes
Surely words can't lift
Your heart every time
But when you pen
Your heart beats mine
How do you convey
Such feelings with rhymes

How will they see
The desperate me
And feel the pain
Flow as I bleed
Knowing the longing
Has yet to break free
What will become
If I can't get no relief
So
Tell me your method
Your motives
Your mind
How do you form
Such feelings with rhyme

Oh my!!!
I do believe this could be it!
Nothing short of the end....
Some people will break
Others will bend
Guns and bombs
Shall shake our souls
The psychopaths
In our midst
Shall play their roles

They're coming for you
Time to wear that
Bulletproof vest
Don't be a fool

THE UNKNOWNS
Traveler Aug 2015
Exhausting are the questions
That just cannot be known
The ceiling of thinking
Is far below the soul

Yet wash it all over me
The legends and the myths
The folklore of my ancestors
The euphoric magical gifts

The goddesses
Who restore balance
The gods
Who direct our flights
My atheist heart can't dismisse
Such possibilities
At the end of life...

HARD WIRED
Traveler Dec 2020
To imagine the imagination
Is to be drawn into the fire
For those
Creative experience’s
Are hard wired

Enchanted escalade
Up the mountain of archetypes
There your gift of expression widens
In a poetic array of wonder
Together WE
Rain down on the weary world
And a spark of light so blindingly bright
Brings sight to the busy ants

The hole dug today
Was just for tonight
Dear rabbits it’s time to dig another one!
Traveler Tim

“Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don’t sit down, it’s time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave…”
— Pink Floyd, “Breathe”

TAKE IT ALL
Traveler May 2019
Feel free to plagiarize

Something you like
If you step inside my mind
I will give you all my light

You could never break my soul
Feel free to steal and lie
Yet
I will always love you
Somewhere deep inside!!!!

RUTHLESS MONEY WHORES
Traveler Dec 2017
(I watched the news today
Oh boy.....)



Hands tied
I can only stare
As the Media force feed us
This world of despair...
Attributes assigned
These devils share
Threatening us with terrorism
The commonalities we fears

Expendable at bay
The lepers we must despise
Insecurity the infection
Growing in our minds
The will of the rich
The voiceless poor
Blood stains
Institutions
The harlot's of war
These are
"Our" governments
Ruthless money ******!!!

She says
She sees darkness
In my words
A tent of rage
Abandonment, desert
Missing pieces
Of my being
Yet I'm not quite sure
What she's seeing

Perhaps my muse
Is somehow confused
And third eye blind am I
'Cause the things that lurk
Within my darkness
Are whats keeping me alive

JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE
Traveler Jul 2013
"I wish" she said, but I really never thought about it.
If she could read my thoughts, she'd melt in compassion's bliss, perhaps she'd know how bad I missed, the kiss I seek in vain, who can survive such rain and still maintain, I place no blame to that which I can not explain. But, yet what's with all the hate? Leave me to my tragic fate, *******.

WHY WORDS?
Traveler Apr 2015
Could my words describe a familiar place
A feeling of love or a bitter taste
Or do they echo through time as an endless rhyme
Never stopping to unravel, leaving naught behind

Perhaps they’re merely spoken out of such demise
An incoherent babble of a madman sublime
Should they speak of rage as of life in a cage
I have written of hate, such a shocking page

Yet I would that my words could somehow describe
The part of me buried inside
And so they may know I am something else
Than the person you see when you look at yourself

SAVING ESTHER
Traveler May 2015
Breath taking
Her curves and form
She cracked the mold
Her legend born

The books of the meek
Had forgotten her fame
The blood shed across time
In another gods name

Into the hearts of man
She barely survived
She found safe haven
Within mind eyes

She fell from grace
A hell of a storm
Cursed be man
When she was torn...

THE FACADE
Traveler Sep 2016
Vaguely I recall
My thoughts before the fall
A world view
So wide yet dim
A simple conformance
To a world I was living in

And you
Chemically produced
Passion induced
Love was real
As real as a pill
Oh how I remember
The thrills

Our eyes
So bright and wide
Midnight moons
Amplified
Endless summer skies

Hearts entwined
In temporal bloom
Sat in stone
And doomed to ruin

Quickened
In love's embrace
The fires were fed
In flesh and lace

Memories infused
With the essence
Of gods
But in the end
Love was only a facade...

For things I know
Should never ever be
I hide these feeling
Beneath my smile
As my shameful
Demons flee

I'm sure at this time
You have your doubts
That's why
I wouldn't ever
Want to be found out

  Unlike the man
In the trench coat
I take a completely
Different approach
And so...
This is all that
I'll expose
A shadow of
My lustful soul

Staring down
From the high rise
Of their lobbyist contradictions

The demon-goddess dressed in blue
Awaits the orange haired devil fool
Now that the social savior
By information stall
Is running not so far at all

So how does such
An obvious evil
In our midst exist
By strategic indecision
  The age old Judas kiss...
One of those Bernie or busted realities.

Calm in conscience, safe and sound
All that's lost shall now be found

So I lost all my memories
For the last two years
I can remember
Little bits and pieces
Of way back when’s
But here the thing
My good friend
And my girlfriend
Constantly bring up things
That I said or did the last
Two years that I
Have no memory of.
The first thing I do
Is dig deep, tell me everything
Please, I say
Please give me my memory back!
But then they explain
We already told you yesterday

Traveler Oct 2019
Look at this mess
This baggage
Is all I’ve left
My portion
Hard pressed
I have fermented
Nonetheless

Aged and seasoned
Blemishes and lesions
Yet my austerity
She finds
Somehow pleasing
I seek no reason
That would surely
Be treason

She gets drunk
And high
On me oh my
I get low
Fast but slow
We are of one soul
And now you know
Fermented wine

These are the passages

right versus wrong
The questions of life

Join your heart

Heed the true call

Sinking beneath the surface of right
Inflicted with all that’s wrong
Holding so tight to faith in love
Oh where has my reason gone

Monstrosities so real my spirit can feel
As I flee to the depths of despair
My closest friend is dying within
How long will the gods leave me here

What remains beyond such blame
Do the pieces of love simply perish
Or somehow survive as part of a hive
To sting beyond death of marriage

Capture the light of your brightest day
And store it down deep in your soul
For the night so dark that it tears out your heart
And brings you to this place down below

Out beyond the boundaries
Of ill-misguided deeds

Wishful and watchful
Why should I fear try
to take now by the horns
Take the world a'ride

Then pain divine
I could quit her anytime

Upon a pleasant morn
A tranquil sun does shine
I am but a stranger
