"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!!"

LAKE IMAGE
LOOK!(eye did!)TOO LATE!
Selfies always on the surface
Shedding ,cataract surgery-
before power loss,retain
visions.
Dark allows me to see moon and
stars
Deserts teach belated silences.
Even water gets bored when
dammed
Watch the difference when it breaks
banks!
Returning as a forgotten
stranger
only finds forgetting strangers
Miracles require belief as
donations
Belief takes faith to the bank.
We learned from poverty NOT TO BE
POOR
It is hard to buy wisdom from the
rich
