"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!!"

SEA 2013
if i were to return to her
she
married to one moon
calls
in her silences
i
hear,and i demur
she
has another lover-
plastic,permanent
he
has occupied her
she
has been changed by him
Moon
can call.tides will rise
Occasionally,Tsunami-we
will
always be close
i
carry water in my blood
i
cannot share her demise
with
plastic permanence
So
i make do-myths/memories
they
will sustain me/float me
better
than oil sea 2013
