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?"
STAYING ALIVE!
THE COMING CHANGES THAT ARE STEALING OTHER'S LIVES
Not just the waves of pandemics /not just the search for civil rights
Not just peaceful and equitable policing/Medicare for All
Not just Restoration of both Wilderness and National Parks
Nor clear clean air,water and antidotes to toxic (mining)earth
Not just equality of educational opportunity/access to health resources
Not just for housing and healing and happiness for all
This is a plea for all of all of us to be engaged,not just enraged
For what remains of our world and ourselves to be hale,happy,healthy and healed
Address this meditation/supplication/petition/prayer to the god or goddess of your choice
Empower it with the song/chant/anthem of your personal choice
So we might represent the best of our species
when we represent all of these necessary alternatives
to the rest of our species...
