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 Thom'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?"

O TESLA WHAT HAPPENS

when the Cloud fails? ,as it did yesterday

When even Amazon data storage failed

"Increased error rates"may affect rockets to the Moon (or Mars)

as well as credit card transactions,websites and yes-even blogs!

"Degraded service"is already an occasional  factor

when computers "go down"or "service is denied"

Do not even mention trolls,hackers or spyware

with their intrinsic and intended risks..Until

there is a "fallback option",we will all be at risk-

computers guide ships,planes,cars,missiles,bombs

in time-all of these-could become ONE!
