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?


YOU KNOW OF "THE HIDDEN MESSAGES IN WATER"
How water that is Blessed as "Holy"Water changes itself
while water that is cursed fulfills that intention.
So it is with fruit and vegetables-all food,all people
Curses diminish us-to the point of non-existence
while praise lifts us up and expands our horizons
Elementary this alchemy of goodwill and not-
that the Gordian Knot can be cut by direct praise,
while depression and anger can be resolved via joyfilled expression.
Every word is a chant,a prayer-an affirmation
Every song is a Blessing or an incantation

What is your true purpose in seeking free expression?

...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.
