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?"

"IS THERE LIFE ON MARS?"(David Bowie)
Our eye's skies peer pre-telescopes
To the naked eye-Moon appears
like a white  apple in the hands of space children.
So all our science fiction builds Moon Bases-
as stepping stones to Mars,next on our horizon.
Dust of Libyan deserts in STAR WARS.Cameras on Mars
report once water,but now just dust.We adjust-
having to play god by creating plant life/making water..
We ask-where on Earth are such difficult conditions?
NO WORRIES!With climate chaos,and eternal drought
EVERYWHERE will boast Somali,Yemen,Palestinian,Iraqi climate extremes.
Mars will come to us before we make it to Mars.The God of War
strikes down human adventurers.We need -the Goddess of Waters -to heal..
Blue Planet Gaia calling to Red Planet Mars-COOL DOWN!CHILL!
We are coming soon.Billionaire flights ,until..

...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.
