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?"

WORDS HAVE POWER
I know this by the license plates that are banned in Texas
I know this by the issues you cannot share in Texas classrooms
I further know that discussions in Texas on ABORTION and TRANS-GENDERING 
are anathema to right wing religious ears..My ears and eyes are open..
but i do know that GOOGLE (EARTH)is censored(no military bases shown..)
Even my friends have been banned from FAKEBOOK for speech crimes or topic traumas
This extends now to the virtual world.A.I and ChatGPT are excluding swear words and racist words
And any issue that is not PC..GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!#@!%&$*

...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.
