"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 Tom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth 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 with in 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? why not indeed!!"

CURE FOR TERRORISM
EVERYTHING HAS HAPPENED BEFORE-
Berlin
Airlift,revival of Japan and Germany's economies post WW2
Economic
aid given unconditionally and wisely
to ensure loyalty
and fealty to common core cultural values.
Micro-loans
and small grants work in India,especially for women entrepreneurs
Peru
made life easier for economic growth /thereby negating needs for terror
tactics
China
recognizes this-and sends economic aid to Third World countries
Often
this has strings attached-yet it still adds to both growth and
resources.
Mohamed
Bouazizi enflamed himself when no other option seemed possible
Shining
Path in Peru thwarted by prosperity sharing /making life easier for the poor
/aspiring
Our
concepts fail us-war and occupations fail everyone
To
assist small businesses to grow by farming out work to each ,every and
all
To
reform license laws so processes are easy and brief
To
destroy corruption and cronyism via laws that are enforced
To
educate all in the ways of advancement
If
we wish partners in democracy-people need to see results
Rises
in standards of living allow all to prosper
Tactics
and strategies for success have been proven
All
that is needed is effective honest application...
