"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!!"

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE DAEVID ALLEN
RELEASE
Notions
first-continuity/immortality
Then acceptance-pain/anger
measurement
Communication(of states of
being-how you are/will be
knowing time is a length of
string
Hold yr life in yr own two
hands
Beloved of
strangers,family,friends
They,too ,need the virtues of
release
Harder for those with
compassion/fatigue
Accomplices on this journey
sing-
"We have come this far to the
mountain
Now let us release all burdens
.Turn into wings
Fly away.SING!
