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 Tom'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?"

DATA RELEASE AS THE NEW INFO-WARS
Selective and as edited as Hilary's emails
News of offshore banking practices is made public
via a law firm who profited by those practices.
We have been leaked on before.Trickle down economies
find us smelling somewhat toxic  as staged debt and government bailouts.
"Too big to fail'-yet they failed,or fell into bankruptcy
and only our taxes saved their balances.Sanders saw this
and spoke out against offshore tax havens.His story repeats.
Have we the time or energy to filter millions of documents
outlining financial tax avoidance at massive levels of fraud.
China has banned all such talk.Corruption can buy silence.
We of Wikileaks and Banking Scandals grow cynical of those
who are contemptuous of their public.Accountability is rare
Billions sit,"owned"by those who seek to pay no taxes
Call this business a Church and formally declare write offs
Church of Baal and Mammon-serving the one percent 
and being "too big to fail"-like that Vatican Bank Scandal...

There is always more to know..check your balance..

...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.
