"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!!"

WHEN SHE MARRIED (we were invited...)
SHE GAVE US WEDDING INVITATIONS
which were meant to be planted
they were hand made paper with seeds impregnated
So we planted her goodwill
Flowers rose for smiles showered down
They lasted less than her union
Temporary time tuned turnings
Bells of petals ringing down
Paens of praise rising up
She had always been a smiling Lotus
now flowers bloom around her Lake
PLOP!
