"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, 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!!"

DO NOT BLAME THE MOON
for what is done in her name.She is powerful-dragging tides of
people
on
Ya Ba to Haad Rin in Koh Phangon,Thailand each fool moon Festival.
Moon
is a singular meditation-she is our only.Moon and water are married
in
an alchemy elemental.We can witness-but we are not part of this.
Drink,drugs,sex
suggest Bacchus be a more appropriate deity than
Diana,Selene,Artemis.
To
bathe in sacred waters is an eternal sacrament.To meditate in moonlight
also
Party
heads imported from reincarnated hippy festivals once Goa and Bali
now
seeking new spots to plunder en masse and at large.Far better
small
circles around imaginary campfires on Snake Island,with song and poem and
dance
to
celebrate moon,and water,love,and art with consenting conscious gentleness and
harmonies
Mobs
rush to the Next Big thing.Detritus/ trash
post-Glastonbury..Mammoth.Behometh.
Sacredness
a whisper of moon after midnight.Seeking smaller circles to beam ..in
waters
