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 and 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!!" 


CARRY THIS WITH YOU @ALL TIME
CONSIDER THIS A CHARM
Identity Papers through each daily labyrinth
A WAY OUT when overwhelmed(within)
A dash and dose of coloring in a black and white whirlwind
Here Be a Door,a Window.OPEN! Walls Fall Down!
Smiles and Goodwill Return to Officialdom
You have your perfect life in every Golden Moment
When Tsunami waved,consider Silence
How ,between syllables of pounding vowels
and competing consonants-space opens up
so you can consider alternatives.Then act 
with pure resolve and clear attention.Call
this affirmative meditation.Just call!
Your angels are yours alone.
You are never alone!

...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.
