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?"
EACH DAY,ANOTHER DISASTER
is dumped upon our doorstep.
Floods,fires,wars,inflation-it seems
Dystopia has displaced all Utopian ideals.
Every moon has a dark side.I do not mind.
Embracing chaos is an improvisor's delight
Who predicted Covid?Monkeypox?Vaccines did not stop
this pandemic stealing one million lives from us.But to focus upon loss
is not to value what we are as we imbibe -what remains in every moment of our lives..
Survivors ?More than this.Random as Bliss.We are our Network of Consciousness..
Co-creating in conversation,communities.Real and Virtual.While we can,
we build again.As ants do.Step by step,this dance entrances.Leave behind
all empty snake skins/lost lizard tails.We grow together through wilder weather.
This US.This YOU &ME.This WE These Spider-webbed Communities..
