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?"
WOMEN & CHILDREN FIRST
BOMBED OUT OF THEIR HOMELAND
Trusting in the goodwill of strangers
Neighboring countries welcome them
because they have been invaded before
and often by the same aggressive nation.
Displacement of two million refugees(and counting
Aid agencies are at the Border,waiting
Never enough,but gracious in their sharing
We are living in a world of displaced citizens
Every body fleeing war zones,or climate chaos
What is to become of us?Do not ask..
It will be women and children first..
