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?"

"Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country." —Anais Nin
SO WE HAVE A NEW CIRCUS
Where once we frequented CLEARANCE H.E.B
And the DOLLAR TREE(before-price rise-to $1.25..
Now we buy 19 cent bananas from TRADER JOES
and find their flowers exotic and prices low
So-PAPER WHITES and AMARYLLIS later
We awaken to bright red blooms blossoming
Amaryllis sprouts into a Three Headed Dragon
By now,two have fallen,leaving one scarlet reminder
that while Fates are unknown,embracing the green
is in alignment with THE PRIMAL GARDEN..
We will re-wild flower by flower,plant by plant
And then,our neighbor deposits a white lily
As a Seasonal Gift at our door.This Season
GIVES MORE!

...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.
