HOW TO SAVE A WORLD
Traveler Mar 2019
It don't matter
Where I land
Two strong feet
Stay I can
I love people
My smile is real
I love life
Especially when
Kindness kills
I know worry
It'll make one ill
An open heart
Could save a world

Translucent
Traveler Sep 2021
We hide them in shadows
our unspoken truths
thing we’re in agreement with
the devils we approve

exposure comes
as the sky opens up
slight of sleeves
is brought to the cuff

no escaping society norms
a patch of cosmic clouds become
a down pouring karmic storms

I’m not here to warn you
or soothe an unjust belief
we are at the precipice
of a change we’re going to need
……

Friends And Family
Traveler Feb 2024
My dear zombies,
being beyond contempt,
I merely pity you.
I've tried to revive you
from your slumbering grief.
Surely universal truth
would give you relief.
How bothersome the factors on which we depend.
I shall not hide my contentment
nor bridle my intent.

I no longer give my consent
nor do I agree,
to this world that we've created
in the hunger of our greed.

Awaiting
Traveler Mar 2020
I waited
and watched
no one came
I applied myself
just the same
There on the horizon
a spark a blur
I never believed
that I deserve
I’m awaiting these words to make some kind of sense

Writers Unblock
Traveler Dec 2020
This poem begins with
an interesting headline
designed to grab
your dire attention

The body builds
on more outlandishness
rhythms and rhymes
paradoxical calculations
oxymoronic wisdoms

Now the  ending
of hope paired
with the introduction
of enlightenment

Coda
exposed feelings
the end

Brilliantly Inadequate
Traveler Jan 11
After a large sample
of living
has been examined,
the conclusions
is a pattern of kind.
We are brilliantly aware
yet inadequately inclined.

I have met
several geniuses
in my travels..
it doesn’t take long for the psychological profile to unravel.

All the colleges and their
wonderful degrees.
And so easily life can knock us to our knees.
Traveler Tim

There is 12 intelligence that have been identified in the human psyche, the IQ test is just a measure of two of them. Don’t be fooled by so called high IQs.
(I should know.)

IF SO THEN
Traveler Dec 2020
If...
The engine of the universe
Is
Mathematical in nature

Then...
The circuits of consciousness
Are
Fundamentally incomplete

There is no scientific definition of consciousness

Reality is bleak
In the eyes of a scientist
Drowning
In the laws of physics.
Traveler Tim

I was talking to a scientist associate of mine.

Is love irreducible
Or a simplistic neuron??

The Spirit Of Human
Traveler May 2024
Supremacy is but a belief
held by the sleeping elite.
It’s the mark of Cain
the illusion that religion leaves.

Religion walks hand in hand with supremacy…
Us and them biblically separated.
Yet somewhere inside the spirit of human knows better.
Try to justify if you may.
But it is merely your soul twisting inside…

Doesn’t mean I’m always correct
Except for most of the time

The Divine Plant
Traveler Aug 2021
There once grew
a plant of great pleasures
The gardener
GMO’ed it
beyond measures!

He feared the potency
may be a bit to potent
even for a biblical god
wearing a Trojan

And so..
he crafted two humans
whom he proceeded to
vicariously
live within…

And so you know
what happened next
an endless lie
a slithering slice
of heavenly pie!

Amen
pass the ammunition!!

THERAPY SESSION 2
Traveler Mar 2019
I've come to realize
I need to write
Every word a breath of light
Every thought a burning flame
Every struggle
Down the drain...
I need to convey
These parts that rhyme
It's how I keep
My heart in line

CAUGHT IN A SPELL
Traveler Nov 2019
Untimely reminders
In the mist of might
My love is to weak
To do what's right
..............................
Believe in thy self
There be no other
Carried on lost wind
Return to your mother
For out of the earth
The seeds of light bloom
Fed by the sun
Crest by the moon
A love that's as real
As a raging typhoon
Reborn refurbished
Destine for doom
..................................
No ending
Just beginning again
Tossing and turning
And bleeding to live
How much more
Do we have to give?

Peace Of Mindfulness
Traveler Dec 2021
It begins
at the point of diversification…
That is, the emergence of acceptance.
Then we relax into our eternal existence
gaining ever expanding knowledge
of the living thriving universe!
Traveler 🧳 Tim

Diversity of a spiritual rainforest!
Traveler Feb 4
The mind fines rest
at the end of each poem..
So go ahead
let your imagination roam.
Guide your storms
through creative seas…
Write your anxieties
set your fears free!
Now rest in awareness
as deep silence sets in.
Stay free of distortions
til’ it’s time to pen again…
Traveler Tim

Writing poems is indeed a form of meditation.

On The Floor
Traveler Dec 2020
I propose we elevate our poetical
subjectivity to a faucet of objective reality.
So as we may live in harmony
With ourselves.
A simple brushstroke if you agree
Repeat after me
There’s no place like home
Now
Count back from three
Two
One...
Make it so
Let your creations roll!

Apathy
Traveler Mar 2020
I'm not afraid
That's not why
I'm shaking
I just got off a hard night
of dreaming
I was running....Ya
...I'm unable to recall
Being chased perhaps
Down familiar halls
I can still feel your apathy
For all things life had done to me
My weapons stumble and stall
As hard as I try I can't **** at all
Lucky for you!

Esoteric Jargon
Traveler Jul 15
I feel as if I have a solid understanding.
But I know better.

No one can know god more than anybody else.
Source is limited by names.

As we experience life,
the soul gathers expectations.
Existence is simply an inspiration.
.
We are all in one accord
with what is and what will be.
And now it’s time to change
to a higher frequency..

POETRY MAGIC
Traveler Nov 2018
My eyes have seen your image
**** are you and your beautiful poetry
So eloquently designed
You pull me in every time!
You and I
We are supposed to be
Imagine our world
Two and then, perhaps three....
Somehow I love you
Witch craft indeed
Words have power

Harmony
Traveler Jul 2021
In sanctuary of mindfulness
Breath becomes aware
Behind the eyes of watching
God is present here!

Information highways within
Minute quantum blackholes
Our connection to divinity
Through pours in our soul's

It here I would hope you visit
And eventually come to live
In the sanitary of the caretakers
In eternal mindful bliss!

DAMN MULTIVERSE
Traveler Jul 4
In this reality
Her and I never met
In this verse my path
Bypassed that regret
Yet only to fall
For another one
Who'd break my heart
Before she's done
And on to another
Setting sun
  Of another multi
Universal conundrum

Anger swiftly passed me by,

I nod and wave, have I nice day!!

I am crazy!
That's who I've become
My laughter rings
I love to run!
Shining eyes
I talk loud and fast
This side of me
I wish would last

I cannot focus
She thinks I'm ******
He puts me down
The dark alone
You've seen before
The hidden eyes
Let go of your thoughts
We're all gonna die!

BAD
I’m lost in the forest
I don’t seem to care
Helicopter can find
Anyone  anywhere
So I’ve set down to rhyme
Well actually
I’m looking to find
All that I lost
Within my mind
Oh my girl is worried
And my friends
Are hot on my trail
Tell me again how bad
I’m evil

I’ll find my way back sooner or later

Limitations Of Being
Traveler Mar 20
The universe repeat my lesson so that I never forget.
My limitations are about the depth of my deepest breath.
Two lungs worth of air is all I can inhale, a minute or two of holding you in and I’m forced to expel.
I can’t make you love me, I can’t make you whole, I can’t keep you happy with silver and gold.
There’s really not much in this universe I can truly control.
Traveler 🧳 Tim

The feeling when your children fight with each other can rip you in half if you think you’re in control.

Random Samples
Traveler Apr 2024
In the substance of my dreams
I saturate
Dopamine drives my depth
I draw my dreams
From the subatomic plunks
The eternal fountain of rest

Cognition failure
The source of my imbalance
Loosens my fall to flight
I attempt to pull to the surface
With all my diminishing might

Here the puzzle pieces
Somehow seem to fit
Paralyzed but for rem
My waking body starts to twitch

I gasp and hold
As it quickly slips away
Random samples left in my mind
Only a couple pieces stay

Warning Open Forum
Traveler May 2024
Be careful folks and do be warned
there’s no safe place in open forum!

Perhaps you seek a loving rhyme         In the intimate sea of human kind
Perhaps you believe in a sacred place
Where love is limited to face-to-face

Perhaps you forgot to question why
Believing it’s best if others die
Open forum allows these things
But just be warned of where it leads…
Traveler 🧳 Tim

Just thought I’d try something different.

Living Dead
Traveler Dec 2020
Surely the rules of life
Come with a heavy tether
Weighing us down
Tarred and feathered
To keep us safe in the wild
Calmly tamed
Mindlessness is the name
Of this dreadful game

Bring on the beast
Let loose Goliath
I am all ready bored
With our new Messiah

Give me back my bullets
the primitive said
Or perhaps I’m transcending
The living dead

SOLSTICE
Traveler Oct 2019
I hope you have
A happy birthday
You never let me know
Born on the longest night
Severed from my soul

But I was first
To see your eyes
And feel your misery
Now you hide deep inside
But you could also leave

I'm sorry I went away
The choice was never mine
But if I had but one wish
I'd hope you'd read this rhyme

Cold Hearted Gold
Traveler Aug 2021
I follow not
the rainbows end
the *** of gold
that wares men thin
such are the riches
that turn to stone
loss of reasons
lazy prone
and so I strive
to remain unknown!

Traveler
is not my real name
in the poetry world
I shall never know fame
few will listen
Fewer will read
the need to be heard
is but a social disease

I write for an outlet
for these words in my head
I can never abandon
my lover in red
easing my burdens
massaging my soul
life is but a dream
then we wake up and go!

Again you ask
If I believe

Ground shake

All these years of living
We still haven’t learn

Judgements
We’ve placed
On each other
I want no part
Any longer

Ding A Ling
Traveler Oct 2024
Behold the behaviour instincts we willingly neglect.
To much negative energy
can choke a soul to death..
Inter the loop of suffering

Cloak yourself in righteousness
take your ball and go.

Or simply realise
life is but a dream.
And the alarm clock
is ringing

How do we cut the head off these beast?
Obviously we are uninvited to the corporate feast.

fulfilling the prophecy
of the mighty *****.
Running from the thunder
hiding in the trees,

killing as they please.
How do we cut the heads

SUCH A BORE
Traveler Jul 2017
Perfection
Is such a bore
It's not what
My poetry
Has in-store
I want it all
Then again
I want more
Perfection
Is like an
Infected sore
Always itching
Always at war
Never healing
The inner core
Never reaching
The distant shore
It's perfection
Or nothing more...
And that's why
It's such a bore

EYES ACROSS THE SEAS
Traveler Feb 2020
As I'm looking through your eyes
in an attempt to connect,
I can see your expectations have yet to be met.
Peering through digital lens
the differences are blinding.
In broken sentences definitions
are slowly unwinding.

I wonder if you trust your leaders
or is all the world deceived.
Time is a roller coaster
We're at the top of the big hill

Problem Of Problems

What is this chronic sense
of unfinished business
that wakes me in the night

The problem of problems

as our fulfilment
remains incomplete

What is this treasure
that we seek
to take with us

BUTTERFLY EFFECT
Traveler Oct 2019
Before her life could take shape
While yet unable to communicate
Unable to put into words
Her pieces unable to merge

A fluttery butterfly took flight
She was never quite right
I cry to the sky in sincerity
Mend this broken part of me

And now
I cannot bare
To face the sun
To see the effects
Of all I've done
Before she was three
I broke her and me

Sarcasm settles my stomach
When being force fed propaganda
Doubled down talking points
Sink to the bottom of my guts
Are ya ******* nuts!

I’m wired with a hair trigger fuse
Mess with me you’re gonna loose

i’m not buying what you got for sale

Live long and prosper
For all that freedom brings
American pride is deaf and blind
And bigotry becomes your kings!

CONVINCE ME MORE
Traveler Jul 2023
What if I could believed
all those impossible stories,
all those brilliant miracles,
majestic in their glories!
The proverbs
you teach your children,
the comfort of your gift.
What if it were true
that destinies were some how fixed?

Where is this place
where truth is hidden
for only the chosen few?
The gathering of angels,
the conversion to a Jew?
Where are your invisible deities,
the miracles of their love?
If they’re real, then no big deal
they can stop the wars
from above…

Sea of gold,
trees of knowledge and life,
a ****** heart
becomes god's wife.
Bowing down
forever more
before the judgmental
blood stained floor.
Answering questions like
did you support the war.
I'm afraid you'll need
to convince me more...

Unconscious Reward
Traveler Jan 2021
From here onwards it’s but a dream
Much, much more then
A wish upon a star lite computer screen
Much more then a prayer to the celestial skies
From here onwards time no longer flies
The sting of life and death betrayed
From here love no longer goes astray
And this soul
Is but a fleeting feeling
when we finally let go!
What I really, really mean to express
From here onward it’s time to rest.
Then it will be time for coffee and waking up!

Limited by our own
Comfort-ability

Is an adjustable reality
Going nowhere
Really fracking slow
With no urge to get
  Where ever we go...
But ya got to eat
Before you can sleep!
'Cause we all have needs
