"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?"
THERE IS A PLACE IN AUSTIN WHERE VETERANS GATHER
WHERE A WOMAN DISPENSES VARIOUS DRUGS
to Veterans suffering from PTSD /shell shock/depression/suicidal ideations..
Even the V.A has writing workshops ,where free expression is encouraged
for those bent and broken by wars can heal by sharing what happened to them
couched in images and metaphor..These are powerfilled drugs-there is no cure.
As soon as you start to sing,no cage can hold you down.Life becomes more than bearable..
Open mics fortify all vulnerable spirits who drink from the Well of Shared Inspiration.
All that we are in this wounded and wounding world becomes more when shared
All that we share is a trust in each other.We are each other.
