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?"

WHITE RABBITS,BLACK HOLES,DARK MATTER
BLACK BUDGETS WHITE KNIGHTS
Digital superheroes :Bourne Chronicles/Narnia 
Superman vs Dark Knight.Drones over homes.
Cameras capturing pre- and post-crime
Reclaiming civilian zones.Cafes.Culture.
No need for explosions nor end of life issues
Gardens resurrect slum areas.Off the grid autonomy.
Talk to your neighbors.Unplug from virtual grid. 
All your world in one teardrop.Your inner eyes open
You hear sounds beyond aural spectrum.You feel more.
All senses elevated not on alert but seeking
Unknown unknowns present themselves
Night's dice roll Heavens to your door 
You open to the Unknown.It enters
Every moment an island paradise-a library of silences
You ask only -more!More arrives

Now you can begin .Again.

...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.
