"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!!"

EYE AM BECOME AN EGG
For so many breakfasts,from hen to
plate
frypan to mouth,dozens
later/scrambled
w/added peppers/garlic/onions
Yet the essence as simply as
oval/ova.
Apple an orchard hanging branch
fulness
Egg a barnyard historic,now factory
farmed
Cages for debeaked literary
critics
Censored and edited to fit facts of
deadlines
We do not want to learn what we
imbibe
What we are we eat.Eye am egg.Roll me
!
