Thom says: Here is the new poem. It is about days spent wishing you were somewhere else, with someone else, doing something else. It is about sitting still until it happens. It is about being in love.

The Inside Thoughts of Now – Nothing but your name

Nothing but your name

Thom says: It’s about being so consumed by a person that you can’t focus on anything else. You don’t really mind though because thinking about them is better than anything else. It’s how I felt when I wrote it. It’s how I feel as I write this.

Every other week Thom creates and publishes a lovely piece of illustrated poetry for the readers of Creaturemag. This is his first piece of 2012. Enjoy.

Thom says: Happy New Year to you all. My New Years Resolution is to learn to tap dance. I would also like to improve my juggling. I used to be much better than I am now. And I’d like to be frightened less. I spend too much time being frightened.

The Inside Thoughts of Now – Not Big Enough

Thom says: I’ve discovered carbon paper. I knew it existed of course but now it’s become all that I think about, sort of.

This poem is about being a carbon copy of what you were before without any of the substance. Forgetting yourself in order to survive or get through rough, horrible, awful life shit.

Its about putting on a brave face and keeping on going, even when you don’t know how.

Thom says: I’ve been reading and rereading John Keats love letters to Fanny Brawne for the last few weeks. His devotion to her has kept me buoyed and has reminded me how good love is.

This is my love letter to Joanna Lumley. It is everything I would say to her if our lives were different. They would have to be pretty different mind but somehow, love would be champion. The woman is utterly magnificent. Thank goodness there is somebody in the world living a life as full as hers.

Thom says: It is really about surrendering yourself to the inevitability of never really knowing. There is nothing more than what we have and no matter how we go about things the result is going to be the same.

Thanks Thom.

We are proud to publish a new illustration / poetry / textiles mash-up from Thom Kofoed. Every other week he brings some more insight into his very own Inside Thoughts of Now.

Thom says: It is about being on the edge of something, too frightened to move forward whilst knowing that its the only thing there is left to do. Nothing changes if nothing changes.

Thanks Thom.

Thom says: This week I’ve been unable to shake the feeling that I’m screwing up every aspect of my life. That combined with having a pencil and notepad by the side of my bed at 11.30pm has resulted in this poem. It isn’t how I feel always, just how I feel at the moment.

I’m off to dress up as Maria Von Trapp to film ‘I have confidence in me’ from The Sound of Music now. I trust you’re doing the same.

Another beautifully thought provoking artwork from Thom Kofoed. We love his ability to combine his illustrative and narrative talents so brilliantly and cohesively.

Thom says: It is about having your life turned upside down. About falling so deep inside of something before you realise and adjusting to being where you are now. It is about a new kind of normal. It is about surrendering.

Thom once worked with Steven. This is what they created: http://www.creaturemag.com/category/inside-thoughts-of-now/
