"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?
YOU CANNOT NEGOTIATE WITH A SNAKE
YOU CANNOT NEGOTIATE WITH A SNAKE
AND A CROCODILE WILL NOT LISTEN TO
REASON
And the only reason we defer to
them
lays in their capacity to kill and
poison
If ants were skyscraper height
like dinosaurs were
imagined
we would be deferential/not kill them with
poison
There are some people we call
"monsters"
because of their inhumane actions-Pol
Pot,Mao,Stalin
Butchers of their own
people.Unforgivable.
Others we project monster masks
upon
because they diverge from our opinions.Look
at actions and results
Damage can come from mistakes as well as
willed intentions.
When it comes to taking responsibility/who
can claim wisdom?
