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?"

LITERARY ASPECTS OF MANIFESTOS
Starting with Karl Marx and Frederick Engels THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO
Now add MAO's LITTLE RED BOOK
Mohammad Gaddafi's GREEN BOOK
Now update from 4Chan to 8 Chan for online Manifestos
All listen to each other and are informed by each other
Most are single white males with loner tendencies
The Modern Manifestos decry Multiculturalism
and take up arms  to slaughter/either @random or targeting groups.
To take weapons away from such hateful 8 Chan members does not take away the hate
White Supremacy  couples with White Insecurity,and turns toxic,alienated,violent.
To cleanse such ideas takes strategies,improvisations,adaptations.
The restoration of equality,respect,kindness and compassion starts here and now
Meanwhile,do take away those weapons.

...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.
