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?"

BEAT LOVE IS UNIVERSAL
All of us with a heart
Even those with heart transplants
Even those with irregular heartbeats
Especially those with stress of heart attacks
All of us embrace that central organ-
The one with emotional intelligence
That pumps blood  and keeps us active
Head may be our Control Tower
Heart is our Siri and Alexa.We fly higher
when embracing this Sufi world with wings
of thought and passionate feelings
which distill into Buddhist creations
Affirming each and all and the EVERYTHING
that enlivens and empowers us -to relate
to each other and ourselves as unique beings..
Activates inter-connectedness ,so we RESPECT
all that is-with a universality that levitates and meditates-
to mediate between Light and Dark,Court and Spark-
Eros,Philia,Storge,Amor,Agape-and every divergent affection
for everything and everyone is ONE UNDER THE SUN..
Our wax wings melt when we are afraid of loving
We become Light when we EMBRACE EVERYTHING
Being Beatific,loving everyone...

...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.
