Hey this is Hone Tuwhare's poem. When I opened it I thought maybe Jerry Hughes had penned a response to the original poem and I thought, ooh that'll be an interesting read. Can you make it a bit clearer that perhaps Jerry Hughes posted it and has not written it himself? Taking sun from the master is not cool.

Yes, rest his soul. Hone was a great person as well as poet - we didn't hit off too well when we met in 1963; I thought he was too rough & out there, he thought I was an upstart and said so. But I loved the way he read his verse. Thanks for keeping the memory alive Jerry, Rgds, Ivan
