THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem


Rob Ayling 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 Tom'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 with in 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? why not indeed!!" (The wondrous poetpic is by Jack McCabe, who I hope forgives me for scribbling all over it with Photoshop)

HOROLOGY
HOW TO MAKE AN APPLE
First-start with sand.Crystals.Silicon.(Nature!
Next-ask yourself-what functions R desired??
(Interaction,animation,modalities)
What colors are pleasing to the palate-
Green ?Red?Black?Rainbow?Pastels?
Should this be an ORGANIC Apple?
Should the price range be Whole Foods/Central Market?
Should we make just one(A Model)-
or Market Many Models?Will our Apple be Edible or Art Symbol?
Will we carry it with us until the next Harvest dumps new Models?
or Retain Consumer Loyalty with Slave Conditions(Apple Workers Harvest Less)
Reverse Engineering has given us a perfect Cloned Apple.We have Assembly Lines (Trees)
Now all we have to do is apply Robo-Technology to make the useless marketable.
Artifacts are all replaceable.New model Apples will make us all redundant
Time,Gentlemen?(i see none of you are wearing fruit..

...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.
