"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?"
THE FAILURE OF REASON
to impress emotion. The rise of ANTI-
over PRO-..The use of FAUX over FACTS
the selling of anger and hate. I can mention these,
but it may be too late. No matter what i say,
an ex-President still holds sway. Six people have died
following his way. Commentators cry,
but the swamp still needs to be drained. Who owns "Truth" today?
'Truthiness" and "Alternative Facts" hold sway. Have you tried to talk to a demonstrator?
Reason is on holiday. Some medical staff refuse vaccines. Some chemists destroy their stocks.
Angry white men with guns talk about "Gun Rights!" GUNS DON'T HAVE RIGHTS!
I also want a RIGHT TO LIFE. Slick Slogans and acronyms cheapen debates.
T shirt philosophies and bumper sticker activists steal my eyes. I want my life back!
LIFE MATTERS! and vaccines save lives.. When it comes to conspiracies and science-
I WILL TAKE SCIENCE!
