THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

Rob Ayling writes: 

"Thom the World poet is an old mate of mine from way back in my history. Even pre-dating Voiceprint, when I was running "Otter Songs" and Tom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth, Mother Gong are well known and highly regarded. It just felt right to include a daily poem from Thom on our Gonzo blog and when I approached him to do so, he replied with in seconds!!! Thom is a great talent and just wants to spread poetry, light and positive energy across the globe. If we at Gonzo can help him do that - why not? why not indeed!!" (The wondrous poetpic is by Jack McCabe, who I hope forgives me for scribbling all over it with Photoshop)

ALL THE TIMES YOU LOVE

morning,kissing pillows that at night have held a lover
as outside moon witness changes guard with sun power
Breakfast as you feed upon daylight milk
and the flow of energies gives you reasons to conceive
Noon,when ,paused for reflection,you take time back to recall
how time for memory is not time lost at all
Afternoon-siesta,where you digest the day to date,
slide down the wormhole of where you were when...
evening ..after twilight turns its lemon light into stars
you blink ,remember where you are,and turn your dream frequency on
Night has come-a blanket sky.You are in love ,on earth
You know why.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
