THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

Rob Ayling 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 Tom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth 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 with in 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? why not indeed!!"

WOULD IT REALLY BE SO SPICY NICE

if life were rational and clear/concise

enough to apply theories that work from year to year?

Conflict Theory perhaps?Black Swan Theory ?-yes!

Heisenberg,Heidegger,Heraclitus patchwork blanket bingo!

Stitch cliches in a calendar,add childhood Disney

and a dose of Magical Realism!Aha!~Graphic Novelizations!

Most of my friends are making Memoirs

We watch movies.find them irrelevant to our living lives.

Yet the depiction of imaginary scenarios forestall disasters

Astrologers star simplicities reassure humbly mumbling

Projected data makes a future we may live within

Nothing can assure us the Weather Forecast will be true

Same as fidelity,honesty,authenticity -all may change tomorrow

but who are we to sing our future in?SING anyway!
