stumble beyond the halfway
slowing to minimum speed
somewhere dead ahead
of the second dawn
I find my wanderlust
broken down to wanderrust
and judge it's no disgrace
to avoid the human race ~
surging anywhere it isn't,
I'm not greatly motivated
by traveling for its own sake
to see things first or twice
but that old Wells machine
does crank my yearn
to scrap midlife routine
Time Travel is the prompt from Writers Island

Love the first four lines. I was transported to the machine to be with you, as you travel through time. Great work!

We all escape sometimes....
Some more than others.....
Me, I lose myself in words and stories!
indeed, wanderlust and wanderrust is a hit here. :-)
an enjoyable read.
"Wanderrust" that is clever! But I think we may rust physically, as long as our minds work, we could still have the power to wander, to travel, to explore and be delighted by the many joys of travelling be it physically or mentally.
Travel on.
I wish you well.

Wonderful! I can relate to this- especially "it's no disgrace
to avoid the human race ". I think once we're done wandering, we just want to be left alone. *g*
I liked your expression regarding traveling for traveling sake .. very nice
Hello, Idaho! Fine poem. Wells machine might now be replaced with Dr Who's TARDIS--a blue call box= Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, I think....
