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?"

BEFORE DECEMBER TIDES WASH IN THE CORPSES
INTERREGNUM
Breathing space of Standing Rock reprieve
Little victories of care,love and compassion
Tiny Republics of those who serve all others
Whose values resonate with elemental forces
Wisdom is required in these times-to navigate
Aleppo,Cuba,Afghanistan,Palestine,Iraq,Iran
back in to civilian administration.Our streets
in our cities to be safe from all violence.
Our homes free from home invasions.
Our bodies safe from all violence and predation
Our inner world harmonious in these Seasons

of Peace and Goodwill to All.KEEP BREATHING!

...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.
