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?

HEAR! (IS WHERE YOU ARE)
EYES ON THE WHEEL
Nose to the grindstone
You are not a rock/for if you were-
Pebble to an avalanche/sand in an hourglass
Silica for computer.Precious metal Space Program.
You are a combination soup Periodic Table
You are a Stone Soup of hospitalities
You are a fog soup San Francisco
You are a watermelon soup(Cool as Japan)
You life as a wrist watch.Your life as a weather balloon.
Your life as a Parking Attendant.You Dream Moons.
TIME is a feather  on the World's Bird(also a Magazine)
LIFE changes /mutates on the turn of a wing.You sing-
Hear harmonies of Harpies,Mermaids,Sirens
All that you dream is a feather on the waters
You are feathered/fathered/grandfathered.

Sign on the bus says FURTHER!

...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.
