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 Tom'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?"

VOYAGE,VOYAGERS

Internally,we dream/astral travel

User imagination to flow/fly above/beyond borders/barriers

Rest in the slips between space and time

Externally,we are in a body(of work-

that we tour to Places of Pilgrimage

Deeper and Wiser ,Older and Sharper than we may ever be

Here is where time takes a Rest Stop/Stillness enters

We can keep it at bay-with muzak,memories,mulching

so we digest what WAS rather than what IS

We carry a Cloud (of Unknowing) into the icloud

We seek Matrix in the Grid.Even offline,we seek connection

Return to Paradise Forbidden.It is now Another City.Eden Virtual

People sing Ancient Songs beseeching Return to Primal

Unless it is-then it is not.We are the same-never content with what we have not got.
