"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!!"

"WE WANT TO SING TO A BETTER
ANGEL!"
With a love of wrap around
stories
Wanting storytellers to
ignite/delight/defy/excite us
Wishing for enchantments that
both levitate and meditate
Knowing silence as a foreign
language
Stepping in the WITH basket not
the MAYBE
Taking Facebook's LIKE to LOVE
PASSIONATELY
Connecting those dots until
they become a music chart
Choruses and chorales gather
and sing
One by one we flashdance our
way in
to the Ordinary Mysteries-Why
Birds?
Because Wings demand flight,and
even sorrow is Light
to Illuminate WHAT IS into WHAT
MIGHT BE-
a prayer,a chant,an anthem,a
song
We are All "The Great
Mystery!"
