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 Thom'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?"

WRITING? WHERE TO BEGIN?
INSIDE YOU -
A Persian room,with rug,for meditating
Outside?A Japanese stone garden(for raking)
Around-fields of flowers,sun and moon..
Stars peek out from weed patches
If you ask them,they are angels
They will direct you to the Old Growth Forests
They will share their dewdrop wisdom
They have a love affair with water
Watch!See the river /moving
Nothing has been still for a long time'
Now it is a Dragon/Arising.
Of course,most miracles are never witnessed.
For ,when you see them-you are transformed

And you will never doubt again.WRITE !AGAIN!

...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.
