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?"

IN AUSTIN=AFRICAN DUST!
fills up our nasal cavities/coughing/sneezing
When the Mexicans burn-off-we get the smoke from their fires
(Austin also gets the pollution from Houston-lucky us!-
w/OZONE Alerts resulting in  FREE PUBLIC TRANSPORT!
In Wyoming,Ryan gets the best of two states-
Out of control fires from California and New Mexico
Fire respects no Borders!Summer Solstice starts
with 103 degree record heat in Austin-and this is JUNE!
Of course,we pretend our  lifestyles have no effect upon climates
(Cities heat up with no cooling tree canopy(We all live in cities..
While oil and gas  and fracking industries are terminal-
they are being revived because of supply chain Ukraine
being invaded by oil rich Russia.Wean us away!
Bring solar,wind,wave to the front lines..Let us renew
our love,care,custody and curation of Gaia..
It is never too late to repair relationships..

...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.
