A Toast (In This Divided Land)
In this digital, mystical, cynical agora
I listen to the voices across the diaspora
my world collides
from Alan Woods to Alex Jones
for truth springs up in variable zones
in this maze of voices
a Dark Horse rides
whispers and rumours
growing in the night
Seymour Hirsch with courage to spare
brings stories cloaked in whispered air
Telegram can gust and swarm
as thoughts reside, we seek the norm
we’ll find the key
of every truth, of every story told
Putinger’s cat
paws softly
through the dawn
Lowkey’s verses pierce the haze
where silently the truth decays
On YouTube the FLCCC
doctors for ethics, a steadfast embrace,
in the chaos of reason, they carved out their space
Doctors Campbell, Marrick, Kory, Mahlotra,
Tenpenny, Nass, Mercola and MaCullough
dozens more
following the path
wherever it may lead
Truthstream media flickers at culture’s edge
where voices unite for the plight of the unfree
with laughter and art
Lee Camp, Eleanor Goldfield
Abi Martin, Caitlin Johnstone
all make great company
let’s invite Neil Oliver and Jimmy Dore
to this impromptu soiree
maybe the hosts are
Katie Halper and Matt Taibbi
Across town a more serious affair
celebrating Assange's release from despair
Hedges, Martenson, Greenwald, Maté
Sachs, Medhurst, Kingston, MacCloud, Murray
Blumenthal, Finkelstein, Lyn Alden
oh to be a fabulous fly on this wall

Craig Hemke charts metals progress
Michael Pento’s insights are easy to digest
Gregory Mannerino the numbers he speaks
Iain Davies believes in the truth that he seeks
Mark Crispin Miller counts the cost
when freedom of speech is lost
Reluctant Preppers held their form
now Liberty and Finance gear for the storm
Patrick Lancaster captures every scar
Jim Willie delights from the edge of bizarre
Alan Woods catalogues the struggles we face
Donbass Insider narrates them with grace
Whitney Webb weaves the inner connections
The Corbett Report reveals the inner intentions
Stormcloudsgathering, igniting the fire
Electronic Intifada breaking down to the wire
Bless old Greg at USofA
and Russell Brand and Eva K
in this whirlpool of voices, a symphony forms
each heart serves a purpose, each mind bends the norms
in memory of voices lost in the sand
Russell Texas Bentley, we take your stand
to question, to challenge, to truly care
I raise a toast to those who dare
