"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!!"

MONEY IS INNOCENT (DAEVID ALLEN)
WOT IS WORTH AND WHAT IS VALUED?
what
you want and what you hold
what
you give and what you treasure
what
you steal and what you let go/
Objects,emotions,lovers,friends
Experiences,memories,trust
in futuring
All
you list ,inventory or have forgotten
All
outside your powers of attraction
Maybe
you wish to be an astronaut?
Deep
sea diver,a treasure chest of art?
Skier,surgeon,ballet
dancer,astrologer
Perhaps
all you want is to be young(forever-
