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?"
WALK OUT ON RICHMOND AVENUE
Towards the Barrio on Jupiter
See!Stumps of chopped trees
Look!Demolished house on corner!
Walk parallel to the railroad track
Where dumped trash piles up
See!The trees creak and crack
Split when storms return again
Grass and litter by the creek
Cars parked on concrete
Here ,no room for sidewalks
So joggers meet the local traffic
Beauty of two cultures meet
City and suburban streets
Nature once was wilde and free
South Austin's Unique Beauties...
