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?

IF YOU CANNOT LOVE
@LEAST SHARE-AN ABILITY TO CARE
if one is ill,or in an accident-bring food
if one is broken,mend
if you consider your pain more important
than another's joy,reverse the ratio
Recognize most solutions are mirror-bound
and any addition to this world adds to all
We are contingent auras,with no real Borders
and to meet each other in a time of need is a privilege
which can be removed @ any time.
Medicine might be as small as goodwill/simple as a smile

It is time to walk that extra mile..

...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.
