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?"
O.C.D&P.T.S.D=MUSE!
To find inspiration in Goya's wars
Picasso's GUERNICA.Pollock's drunken chaos.
Basquiat's intensities.Birthed in insecure anxieties.
Art in a time of conflict affects emotional responses.
BLACK is the color.RED the reaction.BLANK WHITE ward walls
to be brightened by Van Gogh's SUNFLOWERS.
Art is born of many mothers.All emotions,crowded.
Prisoners create to escape.Crazed see stars in cells.
Visions imprint everywhere.Most escape like moons.
A few become waves and clouds,sunsets ,sunrises..
Remarked upon.Remarkable.What survives,thrives..
In music,art,writing-Expression w/Depression defeats Repression.
Ask the sky who paints reflections on waters?
And all waters -who is in love with the land?
