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?"

THE REPUBLIC OF AUSTRALIA
Stillborn and sabotaged via Monarchists
Who treated Queen Elizabeth as our Queen Mother
And we Australians as disobedient puppies
We did not mind-but she has gone
leaving her son on the throne(too old and compromised)
Australians do not trust their politicians
"We are the most over-governed Nation"
Our new (Migrant)Prime Minister is for releasing Assange
Also for a Republic.The Olde Guard older
A Coalition of Greens and Labor rule Australia
Every State Government now Labor..
So-why no Republic?Australians do not trust their rulers
Most do not trust Charles either...Devil and the deep blue sea..
I am for my homeland-no longer being a Colony
of some defunct British Empire...

...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.
