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?"

I ASK MY CAT
She cares not for politics nor Presidents
She demands affection and a full food bowl
She leaves when full-to a wilder world outside
Returns when her whim brings her in from the winds
Cats do not need words!They scratch and miaow,hiss and snarl
as primal as any creature ever was-in fur,they are Queens,
wanting their own spot-to be adored.Lots are feral,
and need fixing-or we will have a world of cats,too lazy for mousing.
Much that is new does not appear so to our  indoor/outdoor cat

and THAT(as far as she is concerned)is THAT!

...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.
