"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!!"

the car when it was pulled from the lake-was rusted with weeds and strange growths
the body of yesterday was discovered neglected wrapped in
archives
midnight
wanted to be no -mans-land between consenting adults
children
wanted a Children's Crusade to match their parents
i
saw the hanging tree in Abilene-and the ring that secured the rope
one
horse town-then the horse left.Even the plague got bored.
Tongue-tied?We
have ways of extracting infowars!
Now
all trees are apartment blocks with murals of trees.
No!
You can NOT eat the koi!Goldfish are NOT gold!
Supermarket
Temples-Mammon Steaks ON SPECIAL!
What
you think is different to how i feel about you.Ignore me!
Will
you be buried in your car where you live?
or
the office where you work?
