"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!!"

CHEMO
Bald dome
Wigs?Warm!
Scarf ?ON!
Some flaunt
Their new look
Others hide
from prying eyes
One,i know,had chemo twice
Cancer returned/yet now
she beams full head of hair
and two stories to be told
whenever fear stops others
from being bold/whether bald
or scarf wound round
one healing head..
