"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!!"

WRINKLES IN THE APPLE IN YOUR
EYE
Dolphin wave attention/ Span recedes like
waves
When Light goes,darkness comes in,gradual as
cake rising
Shadow family.Talk without
hearing.Distance.Read lips.
Relationship
?sinking-family?=Doctors,nurses,health care workers
Professional as painted smiles.Good will
merchants.
Ageism means this track has only one way
out.
Home to hospital to hospice.His steel
will
demands to die at home."It is all i am.This
is all i have"
History.Untidied piles build bills
unpaid.Those close know
Dare they say?Raise a flag if you are IN
today
Wrinkles become troughs become
decay.
Thin to the bone core/wasting
away
We all will leave this room some
day.
