THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem (today, it's Brexit)

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 Tom'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?"


OVERNIGHT,BRITAIN LEFT EUROPE
THEIR HEAD OF GOVERNMENT RESIGNS

Stock Markets wobble,Currencies decline
"Be careful what you wish for..
Be Glad To Be Alive!
Billionaires run for President
Want to build a wall/to separate
us from those/who used to own this space
Remember Native Americans on Reservations?
(Bernie Sanders went to Pine Ridge-to listen(not to speak
Of his candidacy,not a media squeak!Be Glad to Be!
Mass shootings?We have them daily!Bush Elder resigns from the NRA
Still we have more guns than citizens.Bullets kill us every day..
Even Democrats have to resort to a sit-in(and are adjourned..
BE GLAD!THIS IS THE BEST OF ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS!
Ask Venezuela,Brazil Zika,Sudan,Yemen,Syria,Iraq,Iran,Afghanistan..
The Dogs of War are rabid.Flames of PTSD are burning..

History?Know Yours!-or start re-learning!

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
