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?"

IN THE HEALING(HAPPINESS)

Awakening,shaking off bonds of past pain

Not carrying carrion/nor overloading emotions

Cut to the size of this iceberg moment

You flow like fjords,fill crystal streams of consciousness.

Release as instant as Free Will and Choice as quick as lightning

You cannot carry all your wounded pasts into a clear future

Bless and release!Send your sorrows to Elysian Fields

where they can join their Ancestors' sufferings

Pull out those lances of hard words/arrows of bad intentions

Allow your self the depth of clarity of clear lakes.Weights sink.

You feel lighter,resilient.Feather on the air.Floating .

You have left all limits behind you as you rise.

Your wings are stronger -as you fly..

MAKING,CREATING,SHARING,CARING

Antidotes to doomscrolling from screens eye-fixated upon

Focus upon elixirs,solutions,panaceas

Ways out,around,above beyond the walls of NO!

YOU CAN!Graffiti on every limit lingering

where love despairs ,and energy wanes of enthusiasm.

Heart generates with every pulse of blood beats

Mind turns crystalline with ways of seeing and Being

You vote with your feet-walking towards goodwill

You vote with your hands-applauding accomplishments

You vote with your eyes-seeing positive visions

'You vote with your ears-listening to harmonics

Every part of your Bodhi Politic hungers for Connection

Community exists within,around,above,beyond One

And we Are One-earth,air (sky),water,fire,metal,wood

Alchemically Inclined all ways-to Seek The Good.

PRE-COVID,WE WERE WEARY

Now ,we are weary of being weary

Tiredness enters when movement is restricted

When time distends as INCEPTION/TENET

Days finds us on islands,lost calendar weeks

Wearied by rituals,necessary as cleaning

Propelled by Unknowing-when/ vaccine?Election?

Change has come ,but it is not for us to ride

Wilder horses have stolen elder lives

Now the young have come to the point of transmission

And we must carry them to zones of healing

If cure were simple as drinking bleach -so be it

Bodies have a way of absorbing poisons

Yet whole Nations crumble at the door of this dis-ease

When,Zombified by dullness ,we become less than before

When this unique moment demands we adapt more.

NO TYRANT FATHER FIGURES

GO AWAY ANGRY MAN!

Go away Yahweh/Sumerian Storm Gods/White Patriachs

You get free rent in our heads every time you Press Conference

We would rather listen to love,facts,science,truth

We prefer care ,compassion,humility,kindness  and goodness

One million lawsuits will descend upon you and your fellow jackals

They ride with you-white vigilantes/afraid (like KKK)of losing power

They have already lost.True power is service(not self-serve!)

Toxic TV hosts FOX viewers.Toxic Tweets confuse us.

Mass hypnotism of impending fascism.Go to Russia!Seek sanctuary there.

from militants on our streets with long guns.They are no "well-ordered" militia
