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?"

WHEN HE WITHDREW
His tinnitus stopped.Bob Mud limits internet/phone use.
Able to converse and listen attentively
without electrically being wired for texts ,Tweets,or disruptive spam.
But you do not have to be Thoreau.Or a recluse in a cave like Pythagoras.
Just surround yourself with green...Gardens,rainforests,jungles.
Place your hands in the good brown earth and plant seeds for future harvests.
Even if nothing grows-YOU will grow.Tithe time out to be in Parks and Gardens.
Active or passive recreation calls in the language of birds,bees,butterflies.
They,too,seek green sanctuaries.GET THEE TO A GARDEN!
Let life live around and within you,natural as the rising green.
A weed is just a flower without a good Agent.EMBRACE THE GREENERY!
Future gardens await your raised consciousness.Your raised garden beds.START YOUR GREEN ARTS!

...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.
