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?

LABELS. LOGIC, LOST
WE ARE LIVING IN A POST LOGIC WORLD
Upside down topsy turvy President
Direct from Lewis Carroll Casting Agency
Part Mad Hatter,part Red queen
To quote SNL-"Nothing Matters Anymore"
We still have demonstrations (daily)
Half  the world in the Women's March
Tithe that for the March for Science
Soon we will have to WALK FOR RATIONALITY
or SAUNTER FOR SANITY,STROLL FOR EMPATHY-
all threatened species when provoking wars
both unnecessary and prolonged
Provoking irrational religious based terrorisms
attacking anyone who dares dissent
These are not The Last Days
Cacti in the desert mescal petroglyphs
Still call us for Vision Quests...

...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.
