"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!!"

UNLESS YOU LEAVE YOUR COMPUTER
YOUR LIFE WILL BE A VIRTUAL ONE
Stranded on Facebook listings,all blogged
out
with only a floating derelict website to
show
for all those hours of day and
moonlight
you invested in reaching out.Trust is a
fickle list
FRIENDS on Facebook are not.Stories begin
and end with people-
and the Gathering of Tribes is all we have
got.
If you believe that these lines have
power
step up and away from your computer/phone
for one hour,
without responding to Text,nor
Tweeting.
Let a gap in time come in-(a "wrinkle"if you
will..
and what what magic unfolds when you
share your stories with people who are
real
