"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!!"

CASCADING CRASH
Intermittently,glasses suicide in my kitchen
Lemnminglike,they
perch so close to the edge
from
HIGH up in open door cupboard space
or
nudging open doors with overfilled shelves
they
tip,they tipple,they tipsy,they fall
down
to the crashed smashed particle floor
I
do not need to believe in gravity
to
not want that to happen to me!
