THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

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?"

LIMITS, LAWS, LOVE

ALL IN A SMALL WORLD

Ocean of plastic and sea wrecks

Clouds of radiation O Chenobyl O Fukushima! 

There is no time(two minutes to midnight 

The Doomsday Clock spells Neutron Bombs

We have more arms than human arms 

Weaponized dolphins sing for beached whales

Driven ashore by sonar nuclear submarines 

And the Nobel Peace Prize winner drops drones 

upon the innocent posthumous civilians overseas 

Yet cries when terrorism returns to sender 

Hatred is fear with a weapon.BREATHE DEEPER!

Without connection,we are as aliens on radar

To be shot down like 1950s black and white science fiction  

Our only hope lies in each other.Self takes a Selfie.

Narcissus seeks Celebrity Status.TV for images 

Fashion for high dollars.Yet you have an altar in your heart

Whatever you bow down to/you give power to

May it be Lotus,Love..May there be more..
