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?"

WATER FLOWS AROUND
WATER IS @PEACE
Whether still or flowing/flashing
Rapidly. She chills-to ice/evaporates
to clouds/Rains down as we Dance Invoking Rain, Again..
Water was Free!-a Gift of Time from Eternity/But we
fight over apportionments/deny others this vital resource
Cause droughts via our Industrial Lifestyle/Frack and dump trash in our waters
They are not OUR waters-it is a Gift that returns again and again
We just add radiation. Heat and change weather patterns.
Water will outlast our tiny power games. Until we,learn generosity
Fluidity, we can never be as free..O Palestine..

...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.
