"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!!"

OM ON THE GAS RANGE
Grass rises weed high
even
in this sleet and rain
Chill
bones rattle skin
within
art drums beating
Outside
black night weather
No
stars/just clouds of crowds
We
get swallowed up in motion
Where
hear and know asks only YES!
There
is nowhere else to go
Except
where you are and be
This
dream was shared with sermon me
Luckily,eye
slept all the way through
All
i heard was "Grass rises..
