"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!!"

ZEROSCAPE & BONE DRY DESERTS
Desertification surrounds these parasitic
cities
where we waste waters on lawns and golf
courses
Watch the skies -see only blue
forevers
Of course there will be
songs,novels,poems
but no city app cures village
thirst
Science fiction(DUNE/Man Who Fell To
Earth)
presaged these terminal cycles.Happened
before-
will happen again!Water cycle recycles
endlessly ever on.
From Egyptian sweat to English
floods.Almanacs advise-
we watch the skies/sweat/use body fluids
like Chinese crops.
Know what water loss means.Count the
cost.
"Isn't it getting hot in
here?.."
