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?

NINE LIVES
ONE LIFE I SPEND ON THE INTERNET
Trolling Youtube,Websites,Facebook
Another i spend watching movies
There will always be more(which leads me
to BOOKS,which take a lifetime to read (and re-read
then i dream(all my one lifetime
Waking up takes another life
(i am not quite sure if i have finished that one..
So i spend a life traveling..between and among..
Eating and eliminating takes a full life
And poetry steals eyes and ears and heart and time
The rest is spare time-a whole life time wasted
just waiting,hoping,trusting and ...

that was nine!

...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.
