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?"
1957-2021
Cars are everywhere
but their engines are extinct
Homelessness everywhere
Single family homes demolished
Refrigerators everywhere
but snowstorms fail electricity
Industrial structures of 1957
Offshored to Third World bases
Now New a virtual freedom-
to pay for shared information
Updated via Corporations
Who control your Smartphones
Data thieves in the Temple
Wealthy one percent billionaires
The rest memes and Tweets follow
Demographics change population
Government structures stay the same
Now you see how USER PAYS
In these last VIRTUAL SOCIALLY DISTANCED MASKED DAYS
