"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 Thom'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 within 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?

SLOW IS ANOTHER NAME FOR
HEROIN

i enter like a steamship/depart like a
train station
Centuries pass/waiting for a
bus
Gaps between are dreams of Greener
Pastures
Breath is scented with Political
Promises
Penelope has rejected all her
suitors
Scheherazade exhausted all her
songs
Annotations stronger than the
Benedictine beer
Illuminations sparkle with faux gold
truths
When we forget,others learn to as
well
Do we forget ourselves before making
mistakes-
or in the commission or omission of
more?
Damocles and Solomon.Child cages.Legal
abuse
Have we forgotten who we
were?
