Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, 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 Thom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth and 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 within 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?"
SOME SAID THEY FELT HE WAS THERE
Others that they missed his presence
He had changed their lives(they said)
His commitment to community
His focus on positive change
His attention to detail
His outlets-NOKOA,KAZI,City Council stage
Each praised his dedication
His crusading and his zeal
None of this was virtual
Every deed was real
His hand composed community paper
His pre-Internet campaigns
Always for a Higher Purpose
Always with a Cause.So we stayed
I hope Akwasi was with us.I hope he stays.
