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?"

NOT THE SCIENCE FICTION BOOK

Not even the screenplay of that movie
Not even the movie
Not even the premise of a dry planet
Do not mention Sahara-rainforest to desert
Nor that decade long Syrian drought
Nor Sudan,Somalia,Eritrea,Australia
Icebergs are melting @an exponential rate
Global warming makes climate disruption
All of this you know.You recycle waters
but stop at gray and black waters for drinking
Allow golf courses and Dillo dirt
Closed system earth.Nowhere else to go
And you WANT to believe there is water
on our moon and Mars.They bring back rocks and dust.
Can we re-verse consumption into 100% recycling?
Does the Law of Conservation of Matter assist us?
High temperatures -Iraq,Iran,Saudi Arabia.
Water wars-Palestine,California,Texas

Where will water go next?

...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.
