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?"

RINGLING BROTHERS & BARNUM &BAILEY

'THE GREATEST ANIMAL EXPLOITERS ON EARTH!"

Long ago and far away,Australia banned all animal circuses

CIRCUS OZ is a human acrobatic CIRQUE DU SOLEIL

Like those Chinese Acrobatic plate spinning shows

Now that elephants are retired in Florida- Ringlings Circus wants to return

But now we have daily circuses-H.E.B,Trader Joes,ALDI

all with colors and SPECIALS and Mark Down CLEARANCES

which delight the eyes and ears and budget of suburban shoppers..

Of course,mechanical Fairs and Carnivals still tour small towns

Now the Circus stresses the skills of their Human Zoos

Ringlings returns to a New Smartphone connected world

No more the smell of dung,from cages and chained animals..

Now we see the skills of talented individuals..Circus Circus returns..

but we will never be the same..Like Fairs and Carnivals..

What we once saw will not be what they experience..EVERMORE!
