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?"

JOIN YOUR DEMOCRACY
YOU SAY"I AM TOO OLD"/"I AM TOO BLACK!"
Welcome-You're a democrat!
You may be a refugee. Welcome to democracy!
Say you speak another language-
Well,that enriches all of us
Say you are a Permaculturist
Gardens are our green futures.
And,if you love freedom of speech
That is now within your reach
Times have changed,and we change too
You know exactly what to do.
If you are DACA-Welcome to America!
Working class?Welcome to US!
Love Walt Whitman and Langston Hughes?
Well,Democrats love them,too
We have poetry at our Inaugurations
"Young,gifted and black"front line Nation
Now you know exactly what to do
ACTIVATE AS A DEMOCRAT-
There is so much you can do!
OVER TO YOU!

...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.
