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?
CHOICE & CHANGE
MY PREFERABLE FANTASY IS FREE WILL
My choice is to embrace it in every momrnt
But moments change(and i change
So no line of any poem will ever be finished
("I reserve the right to contradict myself"(Walt Whitman)
"I contain multitudes".If ,in one moment,i embrace joy
In the next embrace the processing of grief and shadows
There is no contradiction-just progression
And no linear emotional graph can explicate
the variant and vagrant ways to define this Living Paradise.
"This is the best of all possible worlds"(Voltaire/Candide)
And even if it is not,i choose to act as if it is/
"And that made all the difference"(Robert Frost)
