Rob Ayling 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 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!!"

NOVEL
SHE IS WRITING THE GREAT AMERICAN NOVEL
(everyone
should write at least one(like getting married
to
your characters/for(like Charles Dickens found
they
tend to be loquacious and rather forthcoming.
One
wants his name changed,another is shocked @
the
explicit nature of her role/while more demand more"face time"
stepping
out from minor character's masks
onto
the main stage of her mind.She sees them!
They
talk to her!She dictates her epic drama
under
their tutelage.Harsh masters(and mistresses!
Even
the "evil"characters demand depth,sensitivity and wit
(It
is hard to make a villain from someone loving,kind ,intelligent
She
wonders where her novel went!Anarchy rules! Soon
her
life will be scripted by them,and she will have to obey their whims
For
the moment,she is delaying publication..until she finds out her
ending..
