travel benefits

Travel keeps me away from the cold
The weather and the hearts
The kind of coldness that breeds from proximity
And off too much familiarity

The kind that threatens to set one free
To crack the walls 
And take away the catharsis 
Of self pity and a cruel world

Life feeds off pain 
It needs a wound 
One that is occasionally unwrapped and made fresh
As an offering to the Algos

These travels are a brief respite
From the travails of my being.
