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?"

"ATTENTION TO THE PRESENT MOMENT"
We are not the center of our Uni-verse
We are learning each Verse as we traverse
...Best not to evolve in re-verse, stasis or reaction.
Celebration of each living moment, and of all that went before
Linking to "those with whom we share our hopes". Elevating/levitating-MORE!
To shake the dancing branches of our Being-both Immanent and Transcendent..
To align with wave harmonies and particle consciousness.
To be "a part of everyone we have ever met-embracing every event"
To learn from example of all elders, peers ,ancestors
To recognize we are part of a continuum -before, after and during
But we are in this unique moment RIGHT NOW, and this is us-
Beaming,Being,Becoming...ALIVE!

...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.
