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?"

IGNORE THE BEAR IN THE ROOM
NIGHTINGALES SING SPRING HARVESTS IN
Wild bears bomb,plunder,pillage,destroy
For this is what wild bears do.If you find one in your room-
two million will evacuate -to Estonia,Moldavia,Poland.
Bears have claws and teeth.They are hungry /revenous.
They took Crimea.On the prowl for more.Nightingales still sing-
even when claws are digging in.Destruction-oil,gas,nuclear..
Sunflower oil  now just seeds in dead Russian soldier's pockets.
When a bear is in your home,you either leave
or force the bear out "by any means necessary."

...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.
