"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 and 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!!"

FLESH OF WORD
&MIRACLES
Lake of Galilee/walk on
waters
Word incarnate from
infinite
Intuitive ,innate-a story
shared
Spoken,only written when
remembered
Biblos in Caves,packed in clay
Flesh with thorns and
speared
Loss on a cross with
three
Thousands copy
.Spartacus.ISIS.
Headlines decapitated.Media
wars.
Bow down when beliefs enter
politics
Abort all certainties.All is
permitted
Not all is forgotten/nor
forgiven
Bless the Syrian
/refugee/children
