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?"

BANK ON BANKSY
TO BE ANON.TO BE IN PALESTINE
To make art on every wall.To move on .
To make "vandalism"into an artform.
To deal with contemporary issues
To make RAT into an icon for our times
To plant fresh art INSIDE Galleries
To spray paint art OUTSIDE Galleries
To differentiate from Damien Hirst
by making his art free,open,accessible
And that is why it survives on the walls of Bristol
Banksy is one of us-and we are all Anonymous!

...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.
