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?

SMALL WORLD
I WOULD NOT WANT TO HAVE TO PAINT IT!
Small dreams(becoming HUGE demonstrations..
Big streets(filled with small families)
All we want is Peace.Harmony.Community.
A continuing conversation with earth,fire,sky and seas.
To be here today and tomorrow as long as we can be
together(enough to see a "WE" where others see only an "I"
To walk in gardens and in parks.To be with those we love.
To extend this life into more than a group selfie.
A little bit more than Shakespeare's "TO BE
(or knot to be..Yes-TO BE A BEE(sans Monsanto

TO BE FREE!

...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.
