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!!"

WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU
YOU ARE OUT!
you
are so far out
you
will never get in
you are not
suitable-
too
old,too slim,too fast,too thin
to
ever be slow enough to be
cat
among these fat pigeons
Go
away,hawk!
Get
away,eagle!
Truth
and beauty
are
for the birds..
