"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!!"

BUTT ENDS OF SEPTEMBER
FAREWELL SEPTEMBER!
You
were always preface to the Book Of Winter
Autumn
takes a Fall when leaves get deciduous
Winds
arise .Rain returns.Not continuous(contiguous)
In
a matter of some hours,you will be a Woody Allen movie-
nostalgic,sentimental,low-budget/reminding
us of brighter days..
Interregnum
now,these darkening shadows
will
find a Halloween October/some Thanksgiving
and
soon the verdict from a hung jury
will
determine what this year looks like
from the
perspective of baby 2015,fresh-hatched
and
planning more days and nights until it,too,
empties
to Autumn,letting seasons mulch
Composting
memories,curating histories
making
gardens out of fire ant beds
heroes
out of housewives and librarians..
