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!!"

laughter,goodwill,honesty,integrity.4 directions/agreements/seasons
Geometry of relationships .Corner spot.Window seat.Aisle walk
You must leave your past.To have a future,create new moments
Others can fire walk/channel talk/seek entities to open up
You carry your skin and all within with you
All is aligned and functioning semi-autonomously
If you ever tried to control,ants /flies might remind you who was here first
Second-hand.Fresh and original settles for recycled emotions
