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?"

CHAPTER 14
WHERE THE BOY SCOUTS FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY
Where the Daytona 500 claims another casualty
Where China (world's second largest market)bans James Bond
Where Apple  and McDonalds will both lose market share
Where India annexes Kashmir,then plants one million trees
Where cruise ships allow coronavirus positive passengers released
Where FACEBOOK pays 32,000 staff to monitor online content
Where billionaires pledge to buy the Presidency
While young people come out to affirm Bernie
And the cliff-hanger between Boris and Putin
Asks us what happens-in Chapter 15..

...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.
