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?"

WALKING IN BEAUTY
ALWAYS WE RETURN
To bliss childhood, passionate adolescence ,mountain adulthood
We recall moments of alignment with ALL THAT IS
Less reactive, more pro-positive, seeking harmonies and harmonics
That Tree you return to. That Spring. Those Rivers you swam in. That Beach.
Infinity is One Moment. William Blake /Zen/Tao /Sufis knew-
Heart always wins over head. Feel your way through this Maze. Labyrinths are Acts of Faith.
Spirit GPS. Intuitive Engineering. Blindfolded Captain of your Soul spins
and the Dance continues. You only know the way to flow through context.
Return to Eden-but Eden is a prison town. Return to childhood, where age dribbles and goos..(again)
Water parts like the Red Sea,but combines again for Egyptian Armies.
We walk in beauty when we feel-every emotion as real, and worthy!

...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.
