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?"

SELF-CARE,SELF-PROTECTION
STORMS ON EVERY LEVEL
but you are calm,deep,serene,tranquil,mindful..
Retreat within,without cutting ties to loved ones
Remember and recall those points of Light
you know as family,friends,frenemies,enemies-all are teachers..
Beam only good vibes-you do not need to lower your energy or enthusiasm
"Hold close to those with whom you share your hopes"
Meditate.Cogitate.Exercise all your faculties.Journal.Keep a Gratitude List.
Seek and find Reasons to be Cheerful-these can be both small and large.
Rest.Relax.Recuperate.Resuscitate.Revive.Re-integrate all your senses
Learn what is happening but be no prisoner of other people's limits
Love what is,what was,what will be-in this holy and secular moment
This is still "the best of all possible worlds"(or will be..

...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.
