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?"
COUNTRY GOSSIP
Once,we talked
We listened
Over fences
About our neighbors
They did it too
It was food and fuel
It kept us bonded
We got the news
All pre-TV
About who was in jail
Who deserved to be
We learned what was REALLY happening
in our small country/county
Small as a tongue that rattled
large as a village party call
We learned it all-via
Country gossip..
SKELETON IN WITCHES COSTUME
Around the corner-sculptures in costume
THREE WITCHES AGAINST ABBOTT
They have other signs as well-BETO FOR GOVERNOR
PROTECT TRANS STUDENTS
Republic of South Austin
allows such diversity
As well as pumpkins,skeletons flying freely
If politics were not such a horror movie
We might see the ghosts of Republicans
as skeletons floating freely.
