THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, 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 within 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?"

WEATHER OR NOT

TIME IS A MEASURE OF ITSELF ALONE

and we are all short stories.Mostly forgotten

Remembrance is a stone/bronze for others.

A story with us as changed characters

It is as if we never existed/when only parts survive in others

ENDLESS SIMPLY MEANS"BEYOND US"

Our simple scales/our one blue spinning Gaia

Compared to Light Years /Nabiru.Small we are

with pretensions to Emperor of Galaxies .

MARKING TIME ?OR DOING TIME

In a cell,on a rock,tagging  or grieving

We seek permanence without continuance

Even Tribes forget their own languages/histories

Whole Cultures-Atlantis/Lemuria left to Plato's stories  rather than archaeology

NOW IS NOT ENOUGH

Zen/existentialism fails connections-before and after= accomplices/accessories

Whether linear ,curved space-time or spiral nebulae

We are both part and apart from what we feel and see

Moments will never mean more than momentary.
