Swagger and Style
Quiet attention and impact
Power in the step and soul
Direction of the heart
Completely together
Strike the pose and completely in
command everyday
When you walk the catwalk in your life
You dance, dream, and always wearing pockets
The designers may not agree but your are your own stylist
When you are styling with pockets

Not sure if a publisher will come and call again
Open to it but not depending on it
Writing is my craft and sometimes platform
Always trying to polish it and perfect it
Lately, observing and not trying to call in life is where it is right now
Yearning to travel and enjoy the world but not time yet
Patience is wearing thin and tired of people complaining
Yet, Patience surrounds me
We know what has happened, happening, and we are trying to move forward
So, Please don't ask
Trying to enjoy each day as it comes

They came to me in
a febrile dream.
Whispered screams and
malformed limbs.
They wanted to drag
me to the hell they
came from, but I fought,
and got well.

Take a hard look
Turn off the noise of the past
If those toxic creatures messed with your soul
Set yourself and them free
Once they roll off their thrones
Bid them and what they did a long over due farewell
Take along hard look and realize they did a number on you because you didn't know better and you were too sensitive to see for yourself
Beauty is inside and out

I wish I wasn’t triggered
Everywhere I look
I see
Small little memories of you
Dancing all around me

I had to wash my bedsheets 3 times to stop smelling your unique scent
Pictures of your face would pop into my head whenever I turn on the tv
I can’t watch the same things anymore
Cant eat the same things anymore
Cant listen to the same music anymore
Cant drive the same way anymore
Cant laugh the same way anymore
Cant think the same way anymore
I can’t live the same way anymore

Even the plant’s remind me of what you gave me
What grows
And what dies

My faith is renewed by the forces of nature,
from her swirling winds to her raging typhoons.
The face of the sun shines life ever lasting
Her stars speak of love beyond the tomb

The earth is our mother, trees whisper her name
Our flesh and her soil are one and the same
Her rocks cry out and her skies hear the calls
Her rivers flow free as a serpent that crawls

There is strong magic in the music our universe sings
Such a small little planet yet what pleasure she brings
Of all these celestial spirits her body collects
Through an imminent source we all connect

So come lie with me in a soft bed of flowers
We will dream the dreams of kings and queens
‘Til we wash away in warm spring showers
And dine upon the wisdom that nature brings
Blessed be...
Traveler Tim
Perhaps that's the point of it all,
the mate of the soul,
they cannot be two feet down
and smothered in endless
concrete, but instead they
must be made of words untrue,
a lapse of perfect fiction,
for when they come to flesh
and blood, your eyes can't
seem to breathe and your
heart leaps and leaps.
