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?"

"I have seen the best minds of my generation"..and they were busy asking-
"Why are we here on this planet?"Is it simply to work,breed,die?"
Most simple repetitive tasks can now be better done by robots and A.I.
Classically,this should result in more leisure time,a shorter working week
But ChatGPT4 and A.I simply replace our basic functions-terminally..
So what do we do when the assembly line is fully automated?Why are we here,then?
Perhaps it is to celebrate creation-to communicate among ourselves clearly-
to love life enough to allow and encourage creativity and diversity..
To"expose ourselves to experience"so this moment is of a higher quality than the last
Perhaps we need to allow philosophy back into our conversations(and rhetoric/declamation)
Perhaps"The soul is here for its own joy"(Rumi)-seek the "Joy of the intrinsic"
Change compounds until it reaches asymptote.What do we do next?
Let us play with that idea-and see what happens..peacefully..
