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?"

 SAMHAIN
IN SAM'S CLUB,SHE DRESSES LIKE A COP
Counter staff  costume as criminals(striped convict shirts/caps)
Numbers on their back like football jocks.Message T-Shirts everywhere.
This is the night folk declare their other sides.Witches,werewolves,wild midnight creatures
of hired latex and blood paintings.Dressed to impress-but every body is
subject to FALL backwards @2am.Once@a costume party,we all became our costumes.
Instagram pix of faux personalities fill our eyes.So slim and thin the veils between worlds.
Dreams will be rich and deep this evening.Clouds and moon will conspire.
Tomorrow is today with more stories to share.Wanting to remember our ancestors,

wondering what costumes they wore..for the moon..and fire..and the night..

...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.
