EMPIRICAL ANSWERS
Traveler 35m
These questions throughout ages
Have set our greatest quest
Searching for a path
That continues beyond death
It appears the nature of our soul
Is to bring forth good intentions
To overcome the barriers
Of our mind's misled inventions
These lessons can't be taught
By the words of some great teacher
Or by walking in the steps
Of some over zealous preacher
The experience of the knowing
Is an empirical gather wisdom
Guided by the universe
For those who've learned to listen...

ABUNDANCES
An abundance of life
In a cycle of death
How much living
Could we have left?

An abundance of stars
Displayed in the sky
Endless pleasures
On a summer's night
Hear and see
Touch and feel
The reality of existence
Consume at will

An abundance of love
To plant in our graves
Pushing up daisies
I wish we could stay

AI Verses My Muse
Traveler May 9
AI is the limitation’s of the lost.
Those trying to create a poem at any cost.
Files and files of poetic info to chose from but all that stuff has all been done!
Recreated to fit your form, smoke and mirrors of a storm.
But a true poet knows,
the muse and the memes are connected to the soul!

Spiritual Evolution
Traveler May 7
I would never wish to see two countries on earth fighting each other.
This is home to our precious human race.
I’m sorry to say but religions and ethnicities are a stumbling block on the road to spiritual growth.

That’s what god let me know.
Traveler Tim

But yet war is in more places then we are aware of. Western hegemony works in such a fashion.. the US still owns most of the media broadcasting stations around the world. We are the number one source of propaganda..

Molecular Levels
Traveler May 4
Disclaimer:
At the molecular level
we have the power to heal!

Wi-Fi screws with the mitochondria
5G passing through the blood barrier of our brains…

Aluminium chemtrails
Clouding up the sky’s
Seeding for and raining
90% of insects have died

Why do dogs get cancer?
There’s never a good answer.

Polymers and micro plastics clogging up our veins
And all we can do is push our heads into the sand
and try to sustain..

Student Debt
Traveler May 4
I didn’t see the gorilla
who just walked through
There was to much information
where my eyes were glued

While the copious lecture
I ride along
At memorising manual
I’m not that strong.

Community college was such a breeze. I still owe money for their worthless degree.

In America, that’s how we roll!!
Paying for our education
while we’re growing old.

Traveler Tim

In America, we have student debt, imagine that.

I’m actually going back to college for another degree. I’ll be in debt to I’m 83.

And Action!
Traveler May 1
This limited control
takes it tow
as we survey these paths
of all we know.

Circumstantial accidents
did you catch the subtle hint?

Did your thinking
leave you sinking
in a states of hell?
Smoking and drinking
old habits creeping
around the wishing well

This karmic wheel
is going to hold us fast,
if that’s the way
we’re going to act..

APPREHENSIVE THOUGHT
Traveler May 1
Even if you see
The whites of their eyes
I suggest you never shoot
A foolish person draws the blood
That stains their very youth

And even darker days await the one
Who betrays a friend
Unless somehow you’re dead inside
Your conscience will condemn

And sure, greener grass awaits
On the other side
But you’ll never enjoy a single day
When your life is but a lie....

But who am I to speak such wisdom
So sober and quite calm
When recklessly mind, body and soul
Is how I carry on...

Effect areas
Of our intelligence  
That sould otherwise

Stuck in caves
Where kindness

Come together

Turn around
And run for the real life!

Sugar Pushers
Traveler Apr 19
Sugar is harmfully addictive
but imagine going without.
A taste of bittersweet chocolate melting in your mouth.
But look a little deeper processed in your bread, hidden sugars in every box and bottle that you’re fed.
Mailodextrin the silver bullet of death, they sprinkle it on your potato chips and they hide it in your dips! Processed and re-processed till the sugar has been refined, many American eats 3 pounds of sugar a week and of that fact they’re blind.
Insulin levels suffer as the diabetics take their dope, another box of ice cream, another cherry Coke.

Pharmaceutical, healthcare and insurance profiting..
A sudden stop by McDonald’s on the way to Burger King.

TWO HEARTED EVIL
Traveler Apr 15
Choose a side
that fits you best.
Because obviously the other side caused this fracking mess.
And the fools that left
and the fools that followed
in a deep swap of tyranny their oligarchs wallow..
This hegemonic presence is a fierce flame to keep.
Could’ve been, should’ve been careful of all the evil that they’ve heaped..
Traveler 🧳 Tim

So many distractions to keep us from paying attention to the elephant in the room, genocide wars in the Middle East.
Big bad Trump, crazy old Biden, but not a word of Gaza or Yemen on our wonderful news media.
That’s the power of western hegemony!

Traveler Apr 14
I can only deduct
It is not our's to keep
Provided by the sun
The particles of the meek

I can only conclude
I'm riding on a wave
Paddling in different directions
Sifting through the haze

I can only decipher
My thoughts in simple words
Weaving through this emptiness
Connected to this earth

We can only dream of
That which we cannot be
Free from these stages
Of human suffering

I’ll never move on

I’m free!

Addictions Unlimited
Traveler Apr 9
I’ve been there.
You can’t hide your
addiction from me.

Such a familiar behaviour
the stain on our soul,
a preoccupation
that’s killing us slow.

Another cigarette,
a bottle of poisonous joy.
A world full of stimulation
that will leaves us devoid.

Chips and ice cream
cookies and soda pop,
Why doesn’t it ever occurs to
us to just stop!

*******, ****** especially fentanyl?
They’ll keep your back
up against a wall,
on the floor, in a hole
be the Phoenix, not the mole.

Benzodiazepines and barbiturates
prescription from the doctor
that keep us sick..

I’ve seen it all,
and so I know..
Our addictions will **** us
the faster we go!

Celebrities
Traveler Apr 7
I no longer use fantasy as a stimulus. Because pretend drama is but extra drama to experience and I’m unwilling.
Who do you think these rock stars are, whose lives are so glamorously appealing?

My heroes are few and far between, those who help the blind to see. Those who’ve survived life’s fatal wounds, still recognised beyond tomb.
You choose yours, I’ll choose mine. I won’t commemorate the sellouts or the killing kind.

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.

DRAFTY
Traveler Mar 17
Oh blind me now
To the ways of sin
So that I may hide
Myself within
Rip it out
This heart of lust
Take away
My conditional trust
Deafen my senses
To unaware
Cage my guilt
In the dungeons
Of despair

Take away all I've sown
Place a limit on my cares
But you better close the door
Because there's a draft in here
A wind of change
That longs to blow
Into your life
To fill your soul
With the words of peace
Of tolerance that's fair
Allow us to breathe
  A little more fresh air..

Unexpressed
Traveler Mar 10
to express my pain
I must abstain
it’s a toxic masculinity thing!

to express an ounce of doubt
I can surely do without
The universe feeds
our hope and dreams

to clarify this read
I will express my only needs
food, water, and shelter
from the storm..

But for now I must contain
‘cause I’m sounding pretty lame
It’s time to share a beer
and leave you here
expressing all the secrets
of your heart.
What were you expecting from a poem called unexpressed?

Life is a rough ride,
I’ve never been broken but I’ve lived through hell several times.

If I could have a reset…

No, I think I’ll keep them intact

After all
there is nothing I lack
that hasn’t gone afoul.

Theater of Souls
Traveler Feb 23
In the theater of souls,
I am a man!
But I think the thoughts
of a human.
I walk the eternal path
of spirituality,
Reflected in the light
of my reality.

I reached for the higher truth
as the old wives fables disintegrate
into the light of rational thinking.

Our light shines brighter
when we open our minds
and see through the darkness
we’ve been making.

For some of us
abstractions
can flow too far apart
to gather together
Still we navigate

Then there those
whose desires gets tossed
into a word salad

Pour on some dressing
romantically obscure
express your victim hood
your poetical fears!

the Poet kind!

Numbness of reality
A meditative process

All the sudden losses
The older I get
The clearer I see

We are in accord
With a game of certain
Consequences
