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?"

WINTER GARDENS PUSHING THROUGH OLD AUTUMN WEEDS
Young are rising in their urgent needs.They will not wait.They see
Emergence as necessity.Old gives way to young.They who come
after grandfathered clauses ,must dance inflationary waltzes..
Dementia.Alzheimers.Elders do not recognize.Young must tend their origins.
Holes in the safety net.Web does not make for better guidance.Doctors are not robots.
It happens that you fall,and rise,and fall again.Waves are not a Theory-just repetition.Repetition.
Pulse of life is calling.Calling.Participation.One day you will not rise.Who will save you then?

...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.
