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?"

DREAMS ARE MESSENGERS
but their truth is not linear
More metaphorical..
That is why some dreams repeat
Until we understand their messages
Accept,integrate,align,move on.
It is important to move on-
past disasters,mistakes,errors of judgement
Forgive oneself,and seek
to align oneself with what one truly needs..
Dreams are a bank from which we can withdraw
Avoid,evade,deny -or hoard
As Treasures in a Cave of Delight
(And that is why they largely come at night)
We tend to not remember what we dream
Unless and until it is repeatedly seen
Either we listen to the portents shared
Or we move on,ignorant of the diamonds hidden there

...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.
