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?"

TITHING YOUR TIME
(FOR YOUR HIGHER SELF)
WHY YOU MUST STEAL YOUR LIFE BACK
BECAUSE YOUR TIME DOES NOT BELONG TO TEXT,NOR TWEETS
In fact,you have a life outside your phone/computer/work/church/belief system
You do not have to believe in anyone or anything.Everything continues with and without us.
Think-'Water!".River time,tidal time,moon time,creek time,paddle boat steamer time.
Stagnant time,mud time,plastic bottle time,ice time,fog time,mist time,evaporation rate time.
Old is still with us-slavery,corpses of Corporations,Churches,Taxes,homeless,wars and walls..
New is still with us-youth,energy,enthusiasm,altruism,co-operation,volunteers,community,Commons..
In between we oscillate-waves of energies coming and going,rising and Doppler falling
My bets are on LEVITY over the GRAVITY of the virus situation.I do not wear a face mask.
Flu kills more than any Ebola/Sars/Mers/ epi/pandemic.It is sunny tomorrow.Tonight-cloudy with Academy Award stars..

...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.
