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?"

KEEP GETTING FREE NUMEROLOGY
FREE ASTROLOGY.MAYAN CALENDAR READINGS
Seems THE FUTURE is up for interpretation
Jung's RED BOOK.PRINCIPIA MATHEMATICA.MAGISTER LUDI
Numbers as an instrument of divination.Birthdays.Recurring numbers
Strangers contact with IMPORTANT messages.They want RESPONSE
They offer to GUIDE through perilous days.Via Tarot/Psychic messages.
I am happy to enjoy this world /as it is /changing/in ways beyond me
Like swimming in a rip tide parallel to the beach.Like prophecies.
I accept divergent interpretations and varieties of experience
Prefer the pitter-patter of metaphor to unlock the arcane
After all-SONG OF SOLOMON vs BOOK OF JOB/REVELATIONS.
Joyfilled birdsong vs angry demonstrations.Gardens and forests vs rectangular skylines
Thus-preferences expressed,not claiming any Divine Wisdom
Thus-fresh poems with recurring lines,to remind me to GO FURTHER!
THANK YOU for comparing experiences.While we are here,each day is extra.

...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.
