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!

Caravan of infidel's
Show me
What I've missed
I tip my hat
Raise my glass
And await
The gypsy kiss

Burry now
Those hatches
Stained in blood
Of old
I lost my reason
To live in hate
Many years ago

But have you?

At this very moment
The past no longer exist
What ever happens in the future
My will will not resist

It’s not that I can’t remember
It’s just easier to forget
And leave the ghost behind me
And the shadows of regret
………

Dear Death
Did you forget where I live
The penalty of my existence
My stain upon your list

Why do you stall your murderous plan
Human and beast all be dammed
This hunger for life that ends in death
A future of darkness within a breath

Doing hard time in the prison of life
I once lived the dream
Of family and wife
Now I’m alone
On this hill
On this thrown
Dear Death
Come take me home
.......
P.S. Dear Death
It was good to be alive!

I wasn't the only one
Perhaps you've seen it too
Or felt the vacuum void
Of life that's been
Consumed

Or even heard
The voices moan
Woven in time lapse
Without ever a warning
Compass or a map

Shadows gather
Black and grey
The place where
Entropy itself decays

Approaching  
The netherworld
My vision
Starts to fade
Have you ever
Caught a glimpse
Of what's
Beyond the grave?

In a vision, in a dream of youth I met her again
My angel, my queen, a long lost friend
I had long forgotten how she made me feel
As the aspects of this dream remained as real

She lifted her voice as the universal spirit
Harmoniously independent yet one with all who had been bit
Once bit, once alive
Upon a weary road we strive

Her young heart sang, she sang the song of love
She sang of new love, her first and true love
In the valley of the lost where perhaps I left her
Such memories of youth become a blur

As I awoke from the dream, I gathered my thoughts, my pen, my theme
I loved a girl, Penelope
I loved the girl in spite of me
Drizzling down the cold rain came
Yet somehow in my head her song remained

Were it as good
As before
I would have not
Sought after more

The stimulant dies
In despair
Surely you're not afraid
To get back out there

I once lived in a cage
Perhaps I've felt
Your rage
Push it down
Deep inside
Don't take hurt
   For a ride...

Be it lions and tigers
Or sharks and whales
There's no way around
This trip through hell

So lock and load
Your heart and soul
Take your aim
And let love flow

In this life
You can never win
If you don't get out there
   And try again...

Even chaos
Begins to show patterns
Of a more orderly fashion
-
-
-
-
The further back it's viewed from...

We're Trapped
In this physical
Realm of existence
That's logically perceived

No cognitive conclusion
Nor magical delusion
Could ever break us free

So relax
Chances are
We're  just drifting
In eternal universes
On an endless sea
...

A Shaman
Was a collector of relics
And little trinkets of gold
He blessed them with charms
Of wonder
As the story goes...
He collected and placed them
On candlelit shelves
Deep in the chambers
Of The Temple Of Self
Then he left and went on a journey
Hoping the gold would be there
On his retuning...

He didn’t fair as well
In his travels of the new lands
In a cavern of dirt he dug in deep
With a guide of retribution and confusion
He knew this place was incomplete.

And so here
In the silence of our prayers
Once again we become aware
......

Passages of madness
Engraved on the wall
Eccentric the poets
Who use their claws

All rest in peace
The tombstone read
Was it a message from god
Or merely a marker of death

Bleed into nothing
Break into song
One way or another
The world goes on..

Seriously though
What would you do
If I were to extend
My compliments to you

Perhaps you’re pretty
Perhaps you’re smart
Perhaps you’re  the one
Who will steal my heart
Or even worse
You’re **** *** fine
Would these word ...cross
Your societal lines?
Especially
If you found me less
Than divine
Oh my
How these poetical words
Love to define
...

So much energy is spent attempting to explain the nature of depression.
Anxiety and anger can negatively affect family members. The outcome is a dysfunctional relationship.
We can’t thrive tiptoeing around these problems.

The solution is simple.
You are what you eat. An intermittent fasting diet consisting of only meat, dairy and vegetables.
Long walks, leave your device behind.
I guarantee you, your depression will go away within weeks and never return, when you change your lifestyle.

The universe is hierarchy all the way up! And dysfunction all the way down. No end nor beginning, all truths, no lies. Over and over we’re born, we die.
Imaginations pretend and creation set in. Love is stronger than wisdom and there for we’ll be back this way again…

All this weight dragging me down
Get your hands off me!
Must I be both sober and sound
Get your paws off me!
Will you let me go, my way
out into the freezing snows okay
Get your wicked claws out of me

To you and all your cronies
I am just a phony
so please get your hands off me

Find yourself falling free
In love's magical flight
  Perception is but an open door
Trust is a mighty plight
I've waited to be with you
Now our planets have aligned
Stand by to receive the cocoordinates
Do you prefer the physical
Or sublime?

(Your place or mind?)

As many as the stars
Who could ever count the scars
Left on the shadows of time

Caught in mind traps
That part of us naps
And away our liberties pine

Blessed be the meek
Such superstitious freaks
How lovely the stars
In their eyes

Blessed be the tides
That crash on my mind
In pictures I just can't define...

Deep inside
I once survived
Restrained within a cell
Living life behind bars
Nothing more precious
As single piece of mail
Waiting on a visit
To ease my prison hell

I love them bigger then life
But I was forced to send them
To live with my wife
A ****** off the streets
Who long ago left me
And so I started to write
Poetry saved my life!

Once I
Lost the world
Once I
Sold the world
Once I
Left the world
Behind...

But time after time
It always came back
Because
it's only
A piece
Of mind
......

Seriously!!
Feel free
Tell 'em these are your words
Read them out loud
Fear not the gathering crowds
My word know how
To logically survive
Come into my thoughts
All you really need to do
Is live my rhymes
Go now you'll blow their simple minds
Make 'em laugh and certainly cry
Perhaps even sing
Like I say
Share my words with your whole team
In the end
(my favorite part)
You'll sound like me!

So After my early morning chores
I go in the house for my second cup of coffee
And my girl is getting up
She sets down in her living room easy chair
Hot herbal tea in hand, device in the other
I pick up my guitar and magic flows out
I played my magnum opus's
One after another bleeding through my fingers
Tears come to my eyes
I play like I'm playing for my dinner
I'm starving for that connection
The bond that music brings
At the ****** I look up and see her
Still staring down at her device
Then I realize
I played for dinner
And left hungry...

I'm but a flirt
Not quite a *****
I do this for fun
Nothing more
A need, an outlet
A friend, maybe four
We all have our places
In the Kingdom of Lords
Come fill my Temple
With silver and mirth
We are but Travelers
Roaming the Earth
...
Pleasant journeys

On a quiet morn she whispers
Her voice a vibrant viol
Golden sunlight upon her breast
Gleaming with dreamy themes
Of serene scenes, my eyes smile

Rejuvenated in vitality afresh in purpose
She leaves the room yet she's still with me
My abandon knows no worry
My morning has no hurry
She returns with coffee in hand
Her radiant intoxication engulfs me once again ...
What is this that I belong
As strong as rage a soothing calm
A lucid daydream that needs no lie
A wind of wonder fills my mind
A day so very enchanted, two hearts beat as one
We drive off like heroes into the rising sun
The daydream of love has now begun

Upon a pleasant morn
A tranquil sun did shine
My conflicts had I swept beneath
The crevice of my mind

Limitless possibilities
Contemplating  me
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

Pain and pleasure
Then pain divine
I could quit her anytime

Upon a pleasant morn
A tranquil sun does shine
I am but a stranger
A Traveler chained to time

Running from crazy
That's my excuse!
Self medication
Don't call it abuse...
But I've been without
Somewhere trapped within
Pour me a double
Before crazy does me in...

Please come back
My longing heart calls
Such kindness you've shown
You've softened my falls...
Come back my muses
My loving friends
Leave me not
Here alone
  Unable to mend....
Please come back if you can
My dearest HP friends
.........................................

It's fading now
The reason that I'm here
I waited on your poetic breath
  Gasping for your aesthetic air

Yet your page lays empty
In the sinking of my soul
Tell me why my HP lover
Why did you have to go?

Okay all ready!
I feel you all
Suffocating me insane
I'm being drained
My energy flows
Downward
To the lowest of lows
Where lies the pain
That the miserable
Refuse to let go

Empathically
I am cursed
Tethered
To your emotional
Burst
I feel the babies
Crying in the night
My heart spring
Into thoughtless flight
The unrest of the downtrodden
Engulf my weary life

If I could only feel
Without a care
Turn away
And say a prayer
Someone else
I'd surely be
But that's just not
My destiny
...................................
P.S.
So please stop thinking so loud!

Who says that there was a beginning?
Surely an end could never be!
Unless of course we start at
the moment you pledged your love to me!

And when my mind
Is finally gone
No recall
Of what went wrong
Memories blurred
No longer cursed
Judged and blessed
Of all my worth

I will set quietly
In happy thoughts
Awaiting the stages
Where death is lost
Where you and I
Shall meet again
Hearts in minds
Behind our pens

No need to believe
In promises made
Entropy is
An eternal phase
.............

Here I am
Did you miss me?
You can’t get rid
Of what we all need
I am your hollow
Beneath your shallow
Nonexistent invisibly

I am with you
Behind the curtains
Within the wood
The fire set free

I am your sorrow
Awaiting tomorrow
I am the love
The heaven you seek

I am indeed
Your
Poet Freak!

I was once a Poet..

I use to posses the passion
Aesthetically fortified
Romantically conditioned
The nature of blue skies

Windows of raw emotions
Dark nights upon a stage
I have written about such shortcomings
Lovingly in my rage..

But I can’t help but panic
As they tear our world apart
The death of innocent folks
Screams that pierce my heart..

And that’s how peace activism becomes my only art…

Words carefully gathered
And placed upon lines
Creative fitful thoughts
Tighter than rhymes
Emotional words
Rerouted, relived
More than just feelings
These Poetical Gift
...

Funny as if we know
where all these
deep thoughts come from

Somewhere
well below the surface
the roots of awareness
anchor us to creation
as we absorb
universal insight

That is of course
when we turn on our
poetic light!

There existed no switch to turn it off
No such component in a Poet's thoughts
The deepest of meditation
Is but a Poet's contemplation

Words bleed from all we see
Beauty, laughter and sorrow
Forever set poetically free
My Friends!
This is what we were meant to be!

There is just so much
That I should outright say
Yet... Unfortunately
That would be a real
Frighting, uncomfortable page...

I mean
"Wow"!!
Sometimes my mind
Losses doubt
All my past ghost
Start screaming out
Faces I forgotten
Memories obscured
Yesterdays messes
From a city I once severed

So if I happen
To slip and say such words
Let it be known
My heart can no longer endure
.....

Love is the acceptance
of the divine!
Fear claims more fear.
(That little voice
whispering
in your other ear)
The true self expresses
in the eternal now,
And so blessed are those
poetically endows!

You said it
She said it
No one regrets it
Death and suffering
Are at the Poets door
You've read it
A hundred times for sure
Think how many more
Poets and Poetess torn
War in their minds
It's rhyming time
Cuts and craziness
Are divine
Line by line
Bleeding is a sad sign
It would be different
If you were all mine
I would hold you
Until you were fine

Relax
Take two quick breaths in
-Hold it-
Now let your breath out slowly
3,2,1..
There that’s better
Repeat this action a few times
As needed
(This actually works)

Breath easy
Clear your mind
Leave them concerns
Of your deepest poetry behind
Away!
Let your brain’s plasticity pine

Don’t assume
This is written of you
Your victimiser’s exist sublime
Don’t take things personal
It’s the way things are
The strength is yours to find

I’m having trouble
With communication
I talk far too much
  In all my relations...
All I’m really looking for
Is instant gratification
I long for home but
My heart
Seem to be
  On a vacation...
I realize
This is all just
Broken
Poetic contemplation...
................................................­

Actually...

The substance surrounding

"Invisibility"

Is made up of
Poetic words and stanza...

Their eyes
Will always
Look down
On you
Their hearts
Will never
Change

So warm
Your hearts
In solitude
A hearth
Of poetic  
Flames...

Their eyes
Will always
Look down
On you
Their hearts
Will never
Change

So warm
Your heart
In solitude
A hearth
Of poetic  
Flames...

Their eyes
Will always
Look down
On you
Their hearts
Will never
Change

So warm
Your hearts
In solitude
A hearth
Of poetic  
Flames...

As the lunar expanse
Of these multiverses
Bleeds into the coming
Of a new dawn
And as I never
Speak too long

The poetic depths
Of my expression
Cannot be contained
Not in mere words
That pop in my brain
Nor images of letters
Expanding the lines
Protruding the pages
In whimpers and whines

The span of my creation
Most grossly defines
The music and laughter
Echoing through good
And hard times
Perhaps then
Our poetic hearts
Shall be aligned...

We cross paths year after year,
Your longwinded narratives
were never quite clear..
Now I can see you for who you are,
participant in separation
ethnic cleansing and war!

I don’t put you in darkness
Nor **** the disease
I don’t take it personal that you’ve been deceived.
But mostly,
what ever ethnicity you claim you are…
We all came down from the heavens
and we’re all made of stars.

Knowing we're strong
We keep holding on
Never letting go
Poets are such stubborn
Individuals...
Using our words
We attempt to fix our worlds
Truth is...
I can't even fix what's wrong
Between me and my girl...
I take no credit
When she finally smiles
My heart has been lost
For miles and miles...

Whisper my name
It you recall this rhyme
Don't back down
It's not our time!
Traveler Tim
