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?"
GHOST POEMS
THEY HAUNT YOU INTO REMEMBRANCE &RESURRECTION
Each line dream-forged ,stolen from the life you live
You see a mirror,then another.Reflect upon them.
Each sound hounds you like Francis Thompson.
Verbal music via Gerald Manley Hopkins
Laughter drumming and Sufi dance via Rumi/Hafiz/Kabir
here come Sappho,Heraclitus,Mirabai!Your Spirit rises!
Ancestors resonate inside the drum of your heart beat skin.
You align with rivers,sprinkled with sunlight,painted white by moonlight
You will live forever!Extended by the wisdom of all you absorb
Ghost poems in a Ghost Dance.Endless,ever,Aum.
You will never forget this last line.
