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?

ARCHIMEDES' THEORY OF DISPLACEMENT
NEW MUST DISPLACE THE OLD
Kerouac fades when Ken Kesey raves
Pop stars popped @27 years young
Trump cannot abide Obamacare
World War Two displaces World War One
Surrealism responds to mass slaughter
Hyper-realism to photographic journalism
Landscape painters to Jackson Pollock
When asked how she coped with the Trump Era
Ruth Bader Ginsberg replied"I trust the pendulum"
All fashion is retro with price tags
We watch "Heritage "bands performing "Classic"Rock
Nostalgia is alternative emotional currency to Bitcoin
Stock Market drops when accelerated by A I
We pretend we have control-explaining the opioid "crisis"
Vietnam was a withdrawal.When Afghanistan?Iraq?
War has been with us (old as graves and vultures)

When will alien peace displace us?

...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.
