Rob Ayling 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, 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!!"

WHEN IN ANOTHER SKIN
BRUSH MARKS IN AIR
Temporary
dervish weather(all swirls and spiral dances!
Currents
subterranean call-O Sirens!O Harpies!
Walled
worlds melt like chocolate in hot sun heart
We
are weather for each other-prevailing winds
Sometimes
sudden storms/soft seas/tranquil blanket skies
Light
calls-transitory illuminations/hung outlaw Christmas lights
Before
belief-feelings without names/the miss of swish
Click!Globe
turns /transfixes upon mirror image
Is
this the part where your hearts betray?
or
when you send sand for beaches campaign
to
end all suffering distances/magnetically pulled
towards
deeper currents/tidal wave love
swamping
that little boat intention
sinking
in spirals and sweetness
Desire
of the deep/enchanted seas..
