"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 appearences with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth, 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 with in 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? why not indeed!!"

JIMI HENDRIX'S BIRTHDAY
Every year,we gather @Brad's
for
a pot luck/campfire and a music jam
2012
sees a Full Moon and Jupiter shine
while
we are inside improvising
Folk
come in from Happy Jacks
i
hand them poetry(they hand it back)
They
have come to join in a living sound track
So
its up to the standing microphone
Drummer
girl has hands on drums
Brad on
guitar with Jimi riffs
JC
on guitar electronics
and
we are Jimi's Children now
He
birthed us in the white blues
(starshine
in an Age of Cloud)
Guitars
and smiles weave communities
of
those addicted to harmonies/and we
will
always remember him
every
time-with improvising
To
be born happens in every awakening
Jimi
is with us-just keep on jammin!
