"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!!"

"NOW YOU SEE ME"
Art is the magic of distraction.Film is illusion of moving
images
Eye
have loved movies all my witnessing life/hungry for new
watch
whatever is released to expand my views.So,with FREE
to
see what Morgan Freeman(imprisoned),Michael Caine(embezzled)
and
a cast of magicians can sleight of hand/visually distract enough
to
have our audience entranced and hypnotized to not second guess
what
HORUS meant-or THE EYE from Egyptology.We sat among
the
popcorn chewing soda drinking preview folk,amazed and delighted
by
special effects and a twisted plot.Magically,transported via
imagery
to
the poetry of motion (car chases/explosions)ceded to this puzzle-
why
make magic if not to add to this world?to elevate and inspire!
Card
tricks and disappearing rabbits aside-there are other worlds
of
illusion and distraction-politics,war,economies.Joy only comes
when
magic adds to and compounds our primal peaceful powers.
We
left happily confused.Every magic trick both ancient and new!
