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!!"

Magdalena's grandson asks me-
"why
a poet?".(he has 2 white earbuds,
tuning
in to music of the spheres
and
recently asked her for a Bible
@19,she
says "he a sensitive"
so
i give him Deb Aker's book-
"An
Elegant Sufficiency"
knowing
if he truly reads this
it
will be self-explanatory.
Before
he puts his ear buds back on,
i
explain"i have no choice!-
"i
cannot accept less than metaphor!"
He
accepts this,and goes back to his earbuds
i
wonder what he is hearing?
