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!!"

REASON NOT THE NEED
to gather .to circle.to listen.to play.
to
attune to fool moon /aligned Jupiter
to
allow orbits of others .to link.to connect
To
step on a pontoon with a lawnmower engine
putt
putt to Snake Island underneath orange round
plates
of pot luck.vegetarian options.musical sounds
smaller
circles form as firelight gleams.strung Xmas lights trees
Moon
rising as more trickle in.Last of the year.Let us begin-
we
have a need to gather.a need to hear each other.
more
to explore sounds together.to stand on the same ground together
to
dispel all myth aloneness. under one moon to be unitary
consciousness
diverse.we
diverge.we subvert the dominant paradigm.just by being
together..
