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?
GRIEF, ANGER LOSS
GRIEF, ANGER LOSS
ALL@ONCE.
You lose someone.Triggers
emotions
Whatever level you feel/more lives
beneath
Unexploded emotional ordnance.Land
mines.
You trip over responses not
knowing.Explosions.Tears.Rage
Time may not dilute .Nor heal.Nor
assuage.
It may add more fuel for thoughts and
meditations.
Complex this simple loss.We do not
reconcile the emotional bank statement.
We carry fire.We get burned.Anger fuels
a confusion
because there seems no resolution.No
balance.No Zen.
Integrating the unwilling is like
welcoming homeless /refugees.
Stranger emotions visit.Who are
these?Counseling demands listening.
An equality of respect.There is no real
dealing with unconditional death.

'You don't get over grief, you
just learn to have it as part of your life.'
This analogy of how we
deal with bereavement is spot on.
