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?"
PEACE IS A HOUSE THAT YOU BUILD WITH YOUR HANDS
Made of mudbrick or wattle and daub.Perhaps a bottle house-
A gunyah or a mia-mia.Earth house,underground.
House of Meetings,Meditation and Action.House of Stillness and Song
Peace comes in as a homeless stranger.Refugee across Borders.
You welcome her in to your home.Set a place for dinner.Offer shelter.
This is how peace builds.House by house.Person by person.
See it in Village Markets and Co-ops.Community radio and TV.
Shared information that empowers.People working together/playing..
This began long before us.Bicycles.Pedestrians.Volunteerism.
Networks of and for Self-Help.Food Not Bombs.Keep Austin Fed.
Start where you are with who you are.Be peace.Share it.
