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 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 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?" 
TO DIE TWICE-IS 2 LIVE FOREVER!
CYCLIST,AUSTIN,HIT BY S U V 
Tire marks black on his white shirt
Repired via hospital,returns to us
Austin Quantum artists-honoring others
Opening Austin's art heart as he heals his own
Then-cancer!So he takes radiation cure
Returns to us Austin Quantum Artists
Now he wants to return to his solo storytelling
He will leave us for awhile,smile and sing his way
across the America of today ,with two lives packed away
When one survives cars and cancer
Pete Sebert/Jacob Brown will live forever

TRIBUTE TO Pete Sebert THURSDAY 25 February 6.30 @NeWorlDeli 41st/Guadalupe
hosted by Linda Marie Cossa

...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.
