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?
THE GATHERING OF SHADOWS
WE COUNTED THE
MISSING
in order to forget
them.Reformed our Webs
to tighten
formations.Sought out Points of Light
before they were
extinguished by ennui /enervated/exponentially
Choice @the
Crossroads@Midnight.
Nobody wants to buy your
soul for Fame
is as disposable and
dispensable as breath.
Someone else will fill /fit
the frame.Some younger name
will re-form the
band/re-issue re-mixes for retro-demographics.
Originals were on tired
formats.Scratches added to CDs.
Autotuned vocals with
reverb.Cut the speeches.
Crowds all have cameras
now.Their Third Eyes blinking in the Dark.
It does not matter you were
there.Cameras watch.Like China's Social Credit scores.
Or a football riot where
everybody is bored.Even the drunks ignore the score.
What really happened is
sold as NOTHING REALLY HAPPENED@ALL.
