    2019 YEAR IN REVIEW – BLADERUNNER FIRES

    I raise a toast to an independent hand-made, hand-printed 2020, of and for the people. The new art and literature and ecological innovations are here with us. Stay awake. Love all the people. I wish you good luck and happy trails, enjoy every success on the path ahead.

    FIRE! FIRE!
    POUR ON WATER, POUR ON WATER

    The world is on fire! Literally and figuratively. Don’t panic. The gap between the richest and poorest is growing, and seems set to keep growing, as nations continue to repeat history and vote for the toughest big-daddy they can, to protect them from foreign influences, or rather the foreign influences not paid for. Don’t panic. Often I think to myself…I’d like to retreat to a cave and sharpen my pencils, watch TV and be blissfully unaware of all the drama out there.” No, this is the last day of 2019 and we are awake.

    2019, 365 days that changed the world? Much different from 2018? Hotter or richer or poorer? Here’s my round-up of things that impinged on my nervous system, balanced between events in my life and those on the world stage. 2019 was bittersweet. I could say, the world has…

  • Same Now As Then

    Hey Dudley,
    Baron Foley, Lord and Lady Dudley, John, Dud, Ward
    I’m skimming forgive me, doing a little history
    Into slavery and industry and Iron and… 
    I’m not pointing my finger bro’ naa’

    Not like hands on the statue, no
    I have a few questions, well…
    I lied, I’m begging ancestor spirits
    For forgiveness

    Most but not all privilege
    Growing up in Dudley, England
    Is rooted in some dodgy international business
    Back then as now
    Different plantation
    Different product

    Updated dodgy for 2020 with similar victims
    Thousands of miles away voiceless
    Abandoned enslaved today
    As yesterday, low pay no pay
    You don’t see it so it can’t be true

    How do I ask forgiveness for the incalculable
    I see blood diamond iron and sugar cane
    Black steel run red through history rain
    All empires and imperial expansion built on
    Stealing people and swindling territories

    Keeping the domestic populace domesticated
    Under home rule
    Greed like racism the mental illness
    Infinite growth at any cost

    John Dudley, Baron Foley and Ward dynasty
    During the 16-19th century, Jamaica, Whitney…

    Excuse me, sorry, the phone just rang, hold on a mo’
    Wow, the new private secretary to M.P Lizz Truss
    Is working on….what, defending petty arms-dealers
    Selling armaments to US cops, no, the military
    No, she was right the first time, it’s for the cops
    To be used on protestors, yes THOSE images
    Suzzy Webb, conservative M.P for Stourbridge
    Is, by proxy, doing business with stinking racists

    Of course she is
    Lizz is also minister for women and equalities
    You can’t make this up…
    Who supports racism today
    Who is yet to be captured in bronze or carbonite
    What, enough history you say, eh
    Busy watching Lill’ Britain
    I’ll get back to Dudley, Foley, Ward and
    My privileged position to do research
    Tomorrow, bye for now.

    Oh, one more bit of advice I recently overheard
    As with coronavirus, same with racism
    Assume you have it and take precautions
    Limiting it’s spread, talk and show empathy
    With all victims and the perpetrators of
    Mental illness
    Wash your dirty
    Mouth out with soap and water.

    “Alongside representing Stourbridge, the MP will now also support the Rt Hon Liz Truss, Secretary of State for International Trade and Minister for Women and Equalities.”

  • Pandemic Time – Mark Pesce

    Of all the individuals mapping and modeling the global coronavirus pandemic, Mark Pesce has proved the most consistent, clear and concise. And he’s able to share what he knows and can fess’ up what he does not know. For me, Mark, together with Cory Doctorow and Bruce Sterling are leading voices of post-pandemic futurism. Tune in.
