"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!!"

CAT-TASTROPHE
CATS KNOW YOU (before you do!
They choose you.That stray who insinuates
her way
into your home,heart and food
bowl
knows something about the power of purr and
smooch
the slink of fur and the mighty
miaeow.
They may not know much about cat flu,nor
other exotic diseases
Yet their ability to please is second only
to
their complete dependence upon
/independence from you
Mysterious?Perhaps!With a brain the size of
a pea
Most of their reactions are cat specific
and predictable
Until the next one,with your cat in a high
place sleeping/hiding
or upon your computer ,staring out the
window
at birds she will never chase.With a full
food bowl
and slave owners-what cool cat ever needs
to find-a day job?
