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?"

DEMOCRACY IS NOT HISTORY

This experiment is largely anomalous

Our history as humans is tribal,

with chiefs/bosses/Emperors/Kings/Warriors leading us

Coups are common.and cost lives

Revolutions also cost lives,and are rarely successful

The French Revolution started with mobs storming the Bastille

ended after a bloodbath of guillotine executions

The First Russian Revolution failed in 1905,

and the second lead to massive starvation (and executions)

The Chinese Revolution(the Great Leap Forward)

also led to starvation and mass executions

And when Cambodia was forced into Kampuchea

The Killing Fields murdered the best and brightest of that culture

And the ongoing American Revolution has been hijacked

by those fascists Two World Wars fought against

Mussolini was shot before being strung up by his heels

Hitler had to shoot himself.Some say he escaped to Argentina.

America must now decide what to do with the leaders of this failed coup.

It is not a revolution.Our culture must choose.

THE RIDE

SIGN ON THE BUS SAYS 'FURTHER"

And that is where we are

Beyond all limits and all laws

Where others fear to tread

We are the living/we are not The Grateful Dead

When Art wants us to walk with her

We talk with her and perambulate further

When Love taps upon our door

'We open further.This is another Chapter

of our Memoir called THE BOOK OF GOING FORTH BY DAYLIGHT

It is as inclusive as breath and life,love and delight

And if words fail,the ride will explain

You are moving now

With Earth as this is Heaven

ENJOY THE RIDE!

2

THIS RIDE NEVER STOPS

Even when we get off

It lasts all life

And then the next

Antidote to death

This conundrum always

How can we thrive?

Come alive?

When all we do

is ride?

TAKING UMBRAGE (another Texas rant)

NEVER GOT USED TO IT!

Nuclear weapons,War,Hiroshima,Nagasaki

Killing Fields,Charles Manson,jailing whistleblowers,

Corrupt criminals,Coca-Killa,Pepsi-Killa,Sugar /Salt addiction,

Death,Despair,Alienation.Reactionary politics/sewage.

Being censored/forced into solitary silences.

Realizing newspapers are dead.Trains in bankruptcy-planes too.

And that Boeing 737 killed over 300 innocent people.

And is now being released again-like pardoned criminals.

Jails do not work.Neither do schools-and if you want illness-

go to a hospital!People have forgotten more than they know

Distraction is destruction and sold as Hollywood shows.

I take this personally,as i wish to stay alive

and one in a  thousand share my Covid times cry.

So cancel sarin,smallpox,polio,AIDS,Ebola-

Every epidemic,plague,pandemic of any time

I want health ,happiness-to be hale and hearty

and i take umbrage at any negative horror script armageddon scenarios

MAY WE ALL LIVE WELL &PROSPER!In Star Trek rather than Star Wars.

And we REALLY do not need-a SPACE FORCE!

BECAUSE I BEGAN

as an enchanter/declaimer

improvisor to musicians

This is the demotic,whatever medium is used..

I have 45 boxes of illegible written poetry

in notebooks slowly turning into page fog

More boxes of cassettes of improvisations

with and without music-all one-offs

Cds of course and an e- book of Peace Poetry

Typewritten (Remington,acoustic)then IBM Selectric Golfball)poems abound

Some are stapled together into original primitive collections

(Me and the stapler go WAY back together-

but my life's failure has been to capture the fish of the air

She always escapes ,like all those forgotten dreams

So many diaries,memoirs all coal black fires burning

OF COURSE i try to give it all away

OF COURSE i try to learn from the elements

Every word is borrowed,stolen,purloined from Muses

You,and every person i have ever met-real,virtual,dream,hallucination

Temporary as time,with scratch marks in the Buddhist yantra sand.

I accept everything,love selectively and miss creating

when the world sees no point in poetic posturing,giving me more incentive

to "fail more,fail often,then fail again"(Samuel Beckett)

THANKS FOR CARING,O CREATIVE MUSES!

SHE WAS USED TO BEING ALONE

It was her preferred mode to be

She felt at home on this earth,living by the sea

Waves reassured her of an eternal Eternity

She lived without books,movies,philosophy

Until,one day,she came upon a Homeless Emotion

It flickered between fear and uncertainty,unsure

whether AC or DC ,acoustic or electric,

she felt the need to be grounded.So ,she asked Solo

if she minded a Zero being with a One.Solo knew of Codes,

and agreed,smilingly,and that is how and why we now have

a booming computer industry..
