Travel Is Zen

"Without new experiences, something inside of us sleeps. The sleeper must awaken." -- Frank Herbert

stifling unbearable boredom
fluorescent lights and the smell of dust
tick tock tick tooooock

the wind in my lungs is stale
suffocating the tenant -

a once-passionate spirit
now limp and pale
motionless; defeated

weak...waiting...wanting...


noTHING new only
depth and rich
experiences, colors, emotions

alas, succumbing now
to a poisonous life-sucking malady: SSDD
