    Fungal Economics
    branching words and
    money walk

    the shit into our future
    your words
    our words and their
    words of air-sound-sutra

    why is money and
    how did it get all stinky
    who issues it and how?
    a coin for a cow
    paper for gold
    our money their money
    overnight

    who has the magic wands
    the words and the rite
    disorder of things and stuff
    multi-ordinal terms fed to
    herds like worms to morning
    birds

    credit/debit digit edit
    where is the source
    the root and sacred well
    spring of your knowledge
    our nohledge and their
    scholedge
    who issues shit

    and how holy dung
    holy chao
    money exchanged
    for words language and
    economics co-ming-ling

    honey does not grow on trees
    the bees bring it to each
    branch
    the river bank connect
    with moon goddess via
    the rising and falling water
    levels

    make every river bank
    a bank you can trust
    and the fungi
    facts decompose rotten
    money theory

    a natural fungi force
    consumes carbon dioxide
    and releases carbon
    monoxide

    like wise a new natural
    economic order will

    start with fungi
    and mycelium as the
    fiscal roots and financial
    fibers that in the buginning
    fed

    all the money by
    the process of decomposing
    using smart drugs
    depreciating truffle skins

    the truly regenerative and
    maximum interests inherent in the
    fungal feeding
    of the planetary and
    inter-planetary bio-sphere
    make most but not all forms
    of banking and international
    financial doings on this planet
    seem deceptive

    at best and damned sadistic
    and apocalyptic at worst
    new webworking tools
    help to communicate more
    scientifically how and
    why mycelium networks
    have spread into earths biosphere

    in turn the field of fungal
    economics seems less
    of a joke to me
    and more of a biological
    fact observable in nature

    for fly this fungal
    economic reorder fits with
    the animal and plant kingdom
    and the propensity for doing more
    with less

    and maximizing information
    output to the benefit of all
    no dropping carcass seed
    or shell left behind not
    even zero is wasted

    the whole biological spaceship
    earth recycles energy freely
    between species and
    kingdoms of living systems

    some very influential humans
    on the other hand seem to
    have a propensity for hoarding
    life support
    in all its forms

    for a few chosen people
    or a few International syndicates
    at the expense of the many
    –the Majority of humanity on
    planet earth

    who issues it and how
    what is money and how did
    it get that way, to paraphrase Ez

    the fungal metaphor
    maybe the most eloquent
    and beautiful metaphor to
    employ in 2008

    pitched against unrestricted
    global capitalism driven
    by private interest and
    crooked double crossed
    intelligence tsars

    depreciating currency
    imitates the fungal process of
    breaking down biological matter
    making more room at the
    bottom by recycling

    transform and keep the process
    moving along
    if you stay in one place too
    long with your savings

    chemical compound interest
    you will rot at the bottom of the pile
    without jumping into a new
    state of energy

    by the magic transform process
    see transbutation
    holy communion and
    the u.s fed bank of england

    the deception and trickery
    of the global banking
    fraud-gamer community
    is also mimicked

    on a global scale within
    fungal communities
    in fact mushroom myceilium
    germinate those very orchids
    that so many banksters
    are infatuated with

    even penicillin and all its
    synthesized relatives
    are fungal entities
    claimed patented and
    exploited by global pharmo
    corporations

    the dream-drug in its
    penicillin incarnation
    fungal intelligence
    has already penetrated the
    money maze

    not to mention all the
    other medical applications
    and drugs synthesized
    from mushrooms and/or
    fungal bacterium

    but the poet with mould-money
    and mushrooms spilling
    from his mouth does not stop
    here

    mushrooms and fungus
    metaphors deployed to
    synergize human
    financial intelligence

    just the sprouting tip
    of a swarming underground
    body of evidence

    sometimes sprout a fruiting
    bodyblog and spilling
    billions of its viral meme
    spores into earths atmosphere
    every second of every day
    for a billion years to come

    once the poet has sharpened
    his gaze and the haze of terrestrial
    primate politics and economics
    has vanished in the maze

    we can begin to revision
    our future past present perfect
    days all-at-once

    an enpsychlopedia Fungi
    galactica a languaging entity
    a self-replicating fungal blogject
    spore of the words

    money and wind and
    seeds and stars all-at-once
