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?"

WICKER
Swaddling baby in a wicker basket
Tall green effigy of a Wicker Man
Primal and plant based,bended to purpose
To carry the future in...Moses in the bulrushes.
Lucifer or Rosemary's Baby.Deep futures carried
in these earth plant based structures.
Somehow,Gaia got forgotten.
All these gods and goddesses named
Wicker basket is for all of them
Carrying roses,roses,roses
Mixed in their madnesses
Flung petals to follow the path of Earth again.

YOU CAN MAKE A WICKER BASKET
You can sell them at a Market
People always buy what is hand/home made
They have myriad uses.They remain
even when families fall apart.Their art is usefulness
All praise all wicker mothers who create
So we might carry what is hand maiden..

...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.
