TO HELL WITH POVERTY!!

You, my fellow users n abusers o the Blogosphere, may have the impression that most Pop-Sloppy Drop Outs, such as the S t O n E d h o L Y b L o G G e r, are, if they're not eating pussy, subsisting on a diet of baked beans straight from the tin, take-away pizza and beer. We here at Roller Central, being the quintessential square pegs in round holes that we are, choose to buck the trend somewhat....though, it must be noted, our lack of pussy eating is a regimen forced upon us rather than one proactively adopted!!  Be that as it may, we mostly eschew the kinda vittles mentioned above in favour of fare more refined or rustic in nature : delicately crafted beetroot chutney on home baked sweet potato & roast red pepper loaf are more likely to be seen on the Stoned Holy Smorgasbord than the kinda nosh furnished by yir local take-away outlet.

The sink in the Stoned Holy Scullery is as yet precariously filled with a haphazardly assembled heap of  the assorted crockery and utensils used in preparing our evening repast.....and oh, what a plateful it was!  Time now to take our ease bethankit and bemoan our flagrant lack of restraint as our swollen bellies threaten to rive.....or, seeing as Politics is never off the menu here at Stoned Holy HQ, take time to ponder on the poor souls, less fortunate than we, who ate tonight thanks only to the charity afforded them at a food bank. Or, heaven forfend, went hungry!! And what a howling outrage and damning indictment of Humankind it is that there should be even a one in this ill divided world who is not afforded the Justice of a Meal!!!

Let's ignore all the claptrap about over-population ; Hunger is a Political problem! Hunger exists because of the stunted imaginations and pitiless hearts of the Cretins & Creeps who run the Political Systems of the world. Morally Bankrupt, they preside over a world prepared to spend untold billions in its never ending mania for Death! Mentally Deficient, they wave as their armies parade before them in their sterile and mechanised uniformity as millions die for the want of a glass of clean water!! See their happy faces as their high tech toys and updated technologies fill them with self-importance!! Choke at their mock solemnity, marvel at their loathsome hypocrisies as their instruments of destruction are propelled onto their malevolent trajectories!! "Come, Ye Masters of War. You That Hide Behind Walls, You That Hide Behind Desks. I Just Want You to Know I Can See Through Your Masks!!" These were the vitriolic words spat out to call them out by Lord Bob of Dylan...before motorcycling accidents and Visions of Johanna & Mortality prompted him to dabble in various world religions and, generally, go a bit rubbish!

Meantime, in our Disunited Kingdom, a lot of people won't get no supper tonight. Maybe we should remember when we hear about fuel poverty or food poverty or this n that poverty that these are just good old-fashioned POVERTY! Happening right now in what is supposed to be one of the most 'developed' countries in the world. And all this whilst the Fat Cats get fatter and the Big Shots get Bigger and the new Super-Rich Elites indulge their Soulless, Spiritless, Pointless and ultimately Meaningless Fetish for MORE! More Objects! More Commodities! More Trappings! More Belongings! More Depravities! More Debasements! More Degradations! More Social Decay!

The Trickle-Down School of Neoliberal Lies & Cack- Economic Deceits tells us it is these 'wealth generators' who make it possible for the rest of us to eat......without their get-up-and-go all economic activity would grind to a halt ; it is their entrepeneurial spirit that provides employment for the rest of us : and so we are consigned to stumble lost through their hard, remorseless financial deserts looking for a stream where something can 'trickle down' to the likes of us. We wander in search of our fatted calf.  We wait, cowed, for our Manna from Heaven, sops thrown down from on high as benefaction from our False Idols.  Modern day alms-giving from the New Gods of Greed. We wait, wide-eyed and covetous, to be showered in good things from  the shiny piñata dangled above our heads .......maybeez now is the time to remember that for the piñata to give up it's contents it has to be hit HARD with a stick!!

So, Pop-Pickers, in these Armagideon Times, we must

REMEMBER TO KICK IT OVER!!

TO HELL WITH POVERTY!
