"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!!"

LOSING MY SENSEI
Eyes now need glasses to read
Ears
hold selective hearing
Memories,too,are
edited
Banishment,diminishment
Want
to full screen-TV /iphone
Want
to sing/scream-Noise Pollution!
Wish
to eat yet taste is hidden
My
body's nets and filters rhythm
You
see me half when eye feel hole
You
know fractured fairy tales
Rope
bridge between us frayed,torn,tattered
Quicksand
time draws me vortex down
If
only some of senses are working
how
intuit Matrix bound?
Inside
the cage,bird sedated
Outside-wide
wings /no hesitation
Only
ever particle fragment
Sappho
,Heraclitus,Dead Sea Scrolls
If
we take up so much space
when
will time make us fully whole?
