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?"
WHITE NOISE
SHE KEEPS THE RADIO ON LOUD
Not so much to deter burglars
More to scare scarecrow loneliness away
Same with Motel TVs on all night
Just for empty static companionship
Same with white earphone /ear buds
Who are THEY talking to?Once madness
Now accepted as price for alienation
Your phone is you!Updated ,tracked,expensive
Without which you will never know
when the next SPAM call will come through
(Emptiness is a language,too!Loneliness hurts
but you can hide in a loud radio/hide in a white noise TV
Hide in a suicide Motel until the next day dawns
And your Noir self finally decides."Maybe i can make it through.."
