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?" 

ALREADY, CHRISTMAS MUZAC
IT IS NOT EVEN THANKSGIVING!
Time loops @warp speed.Turkey-or Chicken?
Black Friday?or Thanksgiving?
Grateful are we for celebrations/wish the time lines were sequential...
2016 is waiting outside the door of January
but we are still November!Linear time is a lie!
(Advertising proves it so!-now we know
anything that sells will be sold as stock in trade-
including myths as marketry.Hence bloated hormonal turkeys
with cranberries,then a rush to another gourmand feast @Xmas.
My heart wants to acknowledge Solstice and seasons
but they are as disturbed as busy Wal-Mart shoppers.
So we will gather in December.Celebrate Festive Seasons and WASSAIL!

and seek the true Spirit of these Sharing (Grateful)Seasons...

...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.
