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)

BLOOD APPLES
A certain witch red blossom
Wells,and springs of water-
sprigs of rosemary-remember?
How herbs were home health!
Wise women knew the spells
to speak to healing deep within
by touch we will be redeemed
Connection leaps between
No history this-we/still listen well
and tell each little shadow where to grow
You carry us behind you(Don't look back!-

Learn What You Already Know!
