➡️ Travis Houseless⬅️
Spending the last decade on the road, Travis’ poetry drifts between themes of freedom, purpose, death, spirituality and romance, swinging away at these archetypes in between hitchhiking rides.
Since he has returned home, Travis has been setting up at the Farmers Market doing freestyle poetry for folks on his typewriter. Given only a topic or word, and a couple of minutes, he crafts a personalized sentiment one can take home, in an attempt to bring the art back into the community.
Last year he released his first collection of poetry titled “All I Brought Back” and is currently chipping away at his second book, yet to be titled.
