The difference is simply
Our willingness to communicate
Thesaurus' can be quite confusing
If a word isn't in one's vocabulary
It takes the fun out of reading
Sorry didn't mean to offend!!!

Hell,
Punctuation gives me nightmares!

Don't you have something better to do?
I mean come on now!
Really!
Another post?

I'm sure your floor needs sweeping
And
There's a pile of clothes at the end of your bed
Your under arms are a bit stinky
Brush your teeth and comb your head!

My goodness...
There's a forest growing
Where your lawn used to be!
And the oil light is on
In your 2003
Ya, time to get a new Jeep

This week's ***** dishes have grown green
The trashcan smells like rotten meat
The world stands still awaiting your care...
And here you are
Wasting away with me right here!

There were times
When I too believed
I felt the freedom
Euphoric relief
The wings of protection
I surely had
Enough to keep me
From going mad
The silence of faith
I let it ****
My mind and life
Was never safe
Patients evolve
The riddles
We’re solved
No need for any
Solid
Physical law
While
Trusting in that
Higher call

I’m getting old
it limits my pleasures…
I still feel young
behind these eyes…

I like to hike
out into nature…
I can climb
these hills for miles…

I’m getting old
beyond good measure
but I’m still young
behind these eyes!

Once I lived deep in a forest
My bleeding heart turned to stone
I disappeared out in the shadows
A hollow tree I called home

I know what it is to be a hobo
Train to train, same house twice
I know how it feels to beg and borrow
To share my roll with scratchy mice

Once I even tried to phone home
But the number slipped my weary mind
And when I finally did remember
It all seem such a waste of time

Do you know what it's like to be a hobo?
Nobody knows you when you're down
Memories haunt you like a cold wind
I was lost but now I'm found

Now I live upon a mountain
High above the raging sea
Timeless, old but not forgotten
This hobo nature inside of me...
Song lyrics.
I need a vocalist to accompany my guitar.
Traveler Jul 2017
A deeper inquiry
Is a priority
To catch
And identify
The complexities
   Of our reality...

Pay attention
To the nuances
Perhaps keep a tally
Apples and oranges
Are far from
    Jams and jellies...

Narrow views
Are often
Ordinary
Surely
We are more
   Than extraordinary ...

Try to keep
In mind
There must
Be more
To all this
Hocus Pocus
Then simply
What's literately
In our focus
...

But let your hardships go
Feel the freedom in store for you
No more guilt in tow…
No more regrets or worries
No promises left to keep
No one is worth more then you are
And now you are complete!

Deceitfully innocent
She runs the show
Cordially manipulative
You'd never know

I do her bidding
To secure our roof's
All my worth
Wasted in youth
She holds my deed
She knows my truth
She hides my keys
My only proof

In paths of duality
I follow her down
I am her shadow
I make no sound
I am the hollow
Inside her shell
I am the fire
Burning like hell

Emptily I ride
And somehow get by
She tolls the rope
I never ask why

The interference of two wave
forms a new pattern...
The whole universe
is reflected in a single atom...
These things I can barely
rap my mind around...
But I just got to know
where the answers are found!

When your demon
Tried to shout
Your angel
Held it in
I could hear
Your whisper
Like a scream
Upon the wind
And so
Shall we make
This intellectual pact
May we never **** each other
With the words
Of matter fact
May we never
Hang a dagger
In fellow human's back
Surely for one of us
   The cards are holy stacked...

In the beginning
the waves were exciting to ride.
Being part of the western powers
believing all the lies!
Passionate anger
on parade..
How I wish I could go back
now that Im awake..

But now my loyalty has left..
Too much war and too much death!

Lets pretend
There's no wars going on at this very moment
Hell let just write about beautiful things that make us happy
Those people hiding in foxholes and dugouts are not real
Ukrainian conscripts and dead Palestinians children...
All conspiracy theories, go back to dinner.
Why would we lose sleep?
Lets pretend and forget about being free.

Relax we can keep funding evil with our tax money.

it’s not me….

Ethnic hatred is below me.
There’s nowhere in this world you can travel that love is not alive and thriving!

I have no interest in gangs of propagandised thugs who never mention peace in their narratives.
Nor..
Finger pointing..
Gas lighting..
Lying politicians running every party that matters.

There’s no country, no society, no people on this earth that deserve to die.
I know better than to believe such lies!

Not pretending that your feelings
are not what they are.
Do you love?
Do you love strangers?
Do you love invisible spirits?
What lie shall we believe
As great as the evil in your heart
you could never love me.

And if you choose not to decide
you still have made a choice!
Traveler Tim

There’s no such thing as wrong feelings
Be not terrified of your reality
Traveler Apr 2018
Sometimes it feels
Like we're just holding on
Biding our time
To the end of our songs

Somehow I know
There's much more in store
So many more paths
So many more wars

Somewhere awaits
A peaceful reprieve
For all of the Poets
And hopefully me

Woke up this morn
Everything felt right
Oh how I wish
With all my might
To leave behind
The burdens in tow
All that disturbs me
Let it all go
But then again
I've been here before
Running from demons
That cling to my core

When red is all I see
I **** my pen and let it bleed
woes, curses, miseries
This world is built
on envy, hate and greed

When love I aim to feel
I play guitar
upon my hill
Looking down on
the desperately broken
for someone to put
my last hope in

Hope is carried upon subjective words
The manifestation of ideologies
Introduced into our objective realities

Yet I can no longer contain
A hope for what could possibly remain
Under hope's spell
The side effects
Of hope mania

When suddenly
words come to me
I write them out
I scribble and scratch
separate a batch
turnaround
and reattach
scrapes of paper
scattered about
and somehow
someway
a poem comes out
Traveler Tim
Traveler Oct 2024
Happily content I travel
Your cares I no longer suffer
I have no fear of nothingness
Pure wisdom is my buffer

Alone but not lonely
The world moves to **** fast
Bring it down to slow mow
Make this moment last

Greet me with your laughter
Trust me with your eyes
Let the time move pass us
On this wheel of life.

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

Traveler Mar 2019
Notice!
Silence seems to have
Taking over
It's Sunday morning
Am I the only one up
Or even sober?
Somebody, anybody
Sing me a song
A poem about cutting
Would be better then none
Surely some Poet
Has pain to covey
When you get home from church
Write what you may
I'll shoot you a heart
Some loving thoughts
HP is my addiction
This is the cost

Algorithms mapping
Trapping our lives
Programmed
To wake up
And **** in the night
Lap tops
Coffee hot
Device
In your face
Take your *** to work
   You'll feel better at play...

Yet algorithms
Can never hold
The opus of
The living soul...

The restless heart
A reverse polarity
When poetry's written
At a quarter to three

And so....
No thank you
Computer
I'm begging you please
Don't let the algorithms
  Choose the Daily!!!

Thanks for being there Dear Friends!!

I can’t be sorry
for my state of being..
I am the centre

All else is outside
of my physical powers..
I shall take my pleasure’s
I shall bear my curse…
I am god
but I am human first!

Superstitious impairments

Dear lady
I must warn
I am dented
Beyond repair
The point is simply
I've been kicked
Every-*******-where
I've lost worlds
Crashed and burnt
I've lost a dozen fights
Dare cheek I turn

But one thought of you
My heart skips a beat
Please be careful
Of what you seek!

I'm not
Burning bridges
Or trying
To ***** walls

For grudges
Against people
For no cause

I won't be bought or sold
I've just one simple rule
Never feed a hungry bear
Or
The next meal maybe you...

Salivating
Reliving that rush
As the food hits the bowl
It's never fast enough
Tunnel vision
'Till completely gone
Lick it out
Sniff around
Crack smoking
Sensation
Hungry hounds
Twice a day
When the meal
Goes down
'Til then
Hungry dogs
Hanging around

Dogs on my mind,
I run a popular dog kennel
Some dogs only get one cup of dog food
Their owners keep them on a diet
They are the ones that eat the fastest

Could you ever accept
The truth
Shining from this cheaters eyes
Even if I told you my reason's
I could never tell you exactly why

But
I do advise you to escape him
And come to my side
I must warn you
I love to win
I am the hungry kind

Cast to the universe
This longing for forever's
Riding plasma streams
Eternal internal endeavor

Eyes of the sky
Outshine the nights
Stellar winds
Feverish flight
Shooting stars
With all our might

All we are
Implosive Quasar
Accelerating lives

Will it ever cease
This hunger to be
Can we ever get it right?

You're not alone
In your pain
All your understanding
Has been ordained

Open your eyes
Beyond what you see
Forget what you think you know
And just try to breathe

Woven into the fabric of consciousness
Are the assumptions of reality
And the deception of imagination
But mostly a need to survive
Put down the knives
And walk outside

I feel for you...

You are not alone
In your pain
All your understanding
Has been contained

Open your eyes
Beyond what you see
Forget what you think you know
And just try to breathe

Woven into the fabric of consciousness
Are the assumptions of reality
And the deception of imagination
But mostly a need to survive
Put down the knives
And walk outside

Year after year of husbandry
I've come to know my flocks
The mutts are all but purebreds now
Their love and loyalty is my lot!
To the howling at the moon
To the coyotes across the field
Heckling laughter fills the night
  A hunger for the ****...

The crops are doing well this season
Still the buds will need to dry
I make my sacrifice of reason
Blowing smoke rings to the sky

And here my heart beats of wonder
As she lays down in my bed
She quietly calms the thunder
Going on in my head
I can feel the goddess
Deep within my sheets
I pray like a pagan
For my love and world to keep

This may read
something like a rant
I wouldn’t talk in rhymes
but you know I can’t…
I can’t move my eyes
until the end of the maze
what’s happening over there
always happens that way…
you can’t hurry
the expressionism
poetry isn’t based
in professionalism…
so take your time
try to make since
exaggeration can help
makes your lyrics intense
………..
Traveler 🧳 Tim

This will not trend
that’s not my intent
take what you may
and apply it
and save
save the muse
save the draft

I have falling behind
And I can't keep up

Silently reading

Fingers tapping
Exposing souls

Solid gold

My children got into a hateful fight, they tried to hurt eachother with all their might.

I am music
the cadence of soul
beat box of rhythm
lyrical poems
I am music
the inertia of dance
primitive passion
arising romance

I am music
of both hemispheres
intuitive and sensing
perception unaware
emotion in motion
routed in love
I am below
sent from above

I am music
I am love
Please never give me up!

So strong
My need to define
Meaning get lost
Within vague lines

What I try to express
In a poetic displays
Is as a Traveler
I realize
I can never stay

But I'll visit you
From time to time
From line to line
I'll try to rhyme

But reading you
Has been my greatest pleasure
I appreciate you all
Beyond poetic measure!

In the moment
I embrace reality
The realization of breath
In harmony with
The world around me
I believe the sun
Shall continue to shine
And Gaia
Shall continue to revolve
On into the night
And beyond my beliefs...

I haven't been writing as you know
Primarily dew to the ice and snow
The chill that sets within my bones
No, not a single message home

I haven't mentioned
My points of views
Now that
The frozen tundra
Controls my moods
Plow the drive
Shovel the walk
My frozen fingers
Can hardly talk

And you so warm
In your southern state
Where the winter chill
Is not your fate
Not even an extra blanket
Or a hot coco
Oh how blessed to be
Of a warmer soul!

Nearer to me then any one lover
My own flesh under these covers
Aches and pains and memories
Shall I anticipate another dream

Below freezing wind on my face
Gotta keep moving no time to waste
Love can turn into a forsaken storm
I gotta keep moving
I gotta stay warm

Ideologies
Plague the heart of hearts
I'm afraid we've been
Taken advantage of
Blind sided
Somewhat deceived
From the very start
From Jesus to romanticism
Love is larger than life
Surely there can only be
Magic in bed with
Ones own wife
And no other pleasure shall
A mortal dare embrace
For-bitten fires that burn
Out of their place
What then?
The cave compels
Shall we retreat
Into our own hell's
Or redirect
Our piece of mind
From ideologies
That keep us blind

I don’t believe in the Bible
But I do believe in God
I won’t throw God away with the Bible,
nor the baby with the bathwater.

The Bible teaches judgement and separation…
I believe in forgiveness and togetherness!
My love has no restraints..
Scripture is something I ain’t.

In the shadows of forever
Where we hide
Our wildest dreams

Sailing on eternal seas

Bare your words
In naked splendor
Upon the page

Soft and sweet
Hard and tender
But Save some
Private parts for me

Can you imagine
What I might look like
Have you any idea
Of who I might be
Filled in with pic's
From your minds eye
A poetic soul
Is vividly seen

I can find no need to hide
Behind the silence of the whisper
Blinded by a need to cast a spell
Upon the listeners
The flowing thoughts
That I must convey
I find that I need
To live this way

If it could be
I'd live another
Drawn out mystery

Written like
A timeless novel
Infused in love
Let misery follow

Passionate life
With dreams alive
No need to wait
For the other side

Right there and then
Just like here and now
No need to live
Up in a cloud

If it could be
I'd set you free
And teach you
How to fly

To a place
Just out of reach
Where no one
Has to die
