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?"
WHEEL I DO NOT MIND
MEDICINE WHEEL/WHEEL OF KARMA
Natural as Selection.Evolving as our Uni-Verse
It was just that white noise when we became the "Destroyer of worlds"
Litany-SING WITH ME!HIROSHIMA MON AMOUR
BACK IN NAGASAKI WICKY WACKY WOO!
Siberia .Muroroa.Maralinga.Three Mile Island(Harrisburg).Chenobyl.Fukushima
Split atom geography radiating eternal half-lives.All the seaweed in our Buddhist world
cannot soak up these travesties.Then the sinking of the RAINBOW WARRIOR (Auckland Harbour)
Vaporised-nuclear dust.Genie doers not fit back in the bottle.No more wishes .Us!
I cast my fishing lion pre-fission/fusion.But who can time travel nostalgia?
Blake's Songs of Experience.We know DNA,replicants,robo-calls,mutants.
Even our science fiction movies devastate.Indigenous cultures killed,too-but with personality and respect.
Everyone and everything has soul/spirit-deer,forest,water.We still do-but does science?
Even conspiracy theories cannot cope with MERS,SARS,ANTHRAX made in laboratories
This current and future pandemic-it has touched us with cool cold chill
We return to the pendulum.We return to the wheel.We always will.
