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!!"

FOUR STEPS FORWARD
NO POSSIBILITIES EXIST OF REVERSAL

wind chill,planes stop,folk freeze,roads block
even
so,@every truck stop,engines grind into view
(We
are addicted to THE NEW).Look ahead of you!
Lines

New
Pope says there is no Hell.No body believes
They

Stock
market rises with unemployment figures
Nostradamus
reincarnates as Bill Gates
Startups
and Kickstarters sell small ideas to the rich
THE
ECONOMY wanders like a ghost in the land
How
much is Fate?How much is planned?
Too
