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?"
VILLAGE FAIRS 2021
RENAISSANCE FAIRS TO STRAWBERRY FAIR
Stalls of hand made home made artifacts
Earrings,pendants,brooches -all portable and priced
Surrounded by high priced food stalls with long lines
Yes-they still sell knives and leather goods..
Henna tattoos from tattooed stall holders
But modern stalls hawk CBD,gay stickers,astrologically inclined trinkets
These will be carved,forged,created from bending copper wires
Stones,rocks,crystals will be sold-all that glitters is not gold
Creators sit patiently like fisherfolk to reel their customers in
Curiosity and attraction to bright shiny things.Parents share dollars for children's art.
Everywhere it is as green and golden as a park .Ancient the exchange of culture for gold
The content may be new-but the forms are all old
Hear the click of credit card machines as the future is sold.
