Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, writes:
"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?"
NUMBERS LIE
You are as old as your functioning
Twelve with the wisdom of Solomon
85 behaving like a child(again)
Alzheimers and Dementia dilute us
Gaps and spaces move in over distance
Forget who we were and where we are
This can happen at any time.I know folk
kind and bright,but lost.Not their fault.
They need caring.Connection.Counseling.
Otherwise -islands.Streaming consciousness.
Drowning.How to link when invisible?
Be that smiling senile ghost out-reaching.
Make the jump between those you knew
and those you want to.You cannot lose
when every link is human/evolving..
