The heart you pinned on your sleeve. The song you sang can never relive the feel you felt. That moment reprieve.

Its easy for you when its over. The song you sing. No touch begins, playing silent sounds to love unfound.

There's no you, you're gone - A faded song. That song you sang, we'd never start. I know where I am: Your uneasy heart.

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 3rd February 2022 "Some Joyful Sufferance"

Genres are a clumsy system of categorisation, particularly in dance music. What is "electronica" anyway? You may miss great music simply because you don't like the look of the work "progressive " or the horrible "indie dance". I have to categorise this so I gave it the best name using words you'd recognise.  Its a jumble of noises and beats mixed with some extraordinary loveliness made by the more talented people than me. Here's to the heroes, the producers who toil for hours to make great songs, whatever the category....

I had fun strapping this together. I hope you enjoy listening to it....

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 17th February 2022 "Dog Tooth Socks"

Have you ever wondered where your own grain of sand is? Silica independent of the everything, defined by it's edges, it's borders, it's boundaries? That which defines it as a "grain"? What if such a discovery was what you wanted above all else and your life's work was dedicated to finding it. 
Might the evolving wisdom of your soul encourage your emotions to settle themselves in a sovereignty, your authentic wisdom governing every moment of the search in the knowing you would never find the elusive grain? Is your love for everything encased inside it? 
What if you searched so well and so honestly that perhaps it may turn to the tear that accompanies your last kiss?

Significant judgements abound about what should be one's personal freedoms. You are free to choose for yourself but only if it is accepted by the cultural gods, whose jurisdiction presides over common law, ethics and trouser size. So cut shapes in the size of a kitchen rug and shoot the mustard...

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 23rd June 2022 "Meanmimeanmifriends"

Human-induced existential risks are symptoms of two underlying generator functions.

One of these functions is rivalrous (win-lose) games. This includes any activity where one party competes to win at the expense of another party. The win-lose games are at the root of almost all harm that humans have caused, both to each other and to the biosphere. As technology is increasing our capacity to cause harm, these competitive games start to exceed the capacity of the playing field. Scaled to a global level and multiplied by exponential technology, these win-lose games become an omni lose-lose generator. When the stakes are high enough, winning the game means destroying the entire playing field and all the players. 

What have capitalism, science and technology have created? Among by-products of these rivalrous games are what are referred to as “multipolar traps”.  Multipolar traps are scenarios where the things that work well for individuals locally are directly against the global well-being. Our sense-making and choice making processes need to be upgraded and improved if we want to solve these traps as a category.

Are the current phases of capitalism, science, technology and democracy destabilizing and coming to an end? if so, in order to avoid extinction, we have to come up with different systems altogether, and replace rivalry with anti-rivalry. One of the ways to do that is moving from ownership of goods towards access to shared common resources. We must be at the place where the harmful win-lose dynamics both have to and can change.

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 1st Sept 2022 "Lone Transmitter"

Our ancestors’ lives were tightly linked to the natural flows of the Earth – the sun, the rain, and the soil.

But during this moon-shot of growth and consumption, our fundamental tether to nature was first neglected and then forgotten.

The main inputs to our economies were now mostly free – we merely had to pay for the cost of their extraction, not the cost of their creation, their true worth. Nor their pollution.

To our ancestors, the benefits from carbon energy would have appeared indistinguishable from magic.

And, instead of appreciating this giant one time windfall, we developed stories that our newfound wealth and progress had emerged purely from human ingenuity.  

Modern economic theory assumes that productivity (which underpins our wealth and material progress) is a product of labor and capital. Energy is assumed to be just another input with its unit price representing its contribution to economic output. 

One barrel of oil represents almost 5 years of human labour, and human economies only pay the cost of its extraction (currently around $50 in 2022), not the tens of millions of years of natural processes to create it.  We have underpaid for the main input to human economies – and economic texts do not recognize this fact.

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 29th Sept 2022 "The Great Simplification"

"An increasing number of people were now under the sway of a romantic and regressive ideology, which regarded spirituality as a return to a state once known that had since been lost — to the carefree world of the child, or the paradisiacal state of primitive man…In the Wise Man's view, many of those who advocate a spiritual way of life have completely misinterpreted the real spiritual significance of modern culture and its achievements. Instead they focus purely on the past in the belief that in the past people were more spiritual."

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 13th Oct 2022 "Some Mystic Trifle"

I met Guy and he blew me away. In a prehistoric sense. His breath was his and his alone, though he wanted to share it with the fauna around him, obviously from a very great height. 

He extended his neck far enough that we as men may chop it from its tendrils. Who were we to know we would be the collective lozenge, a soothing elixir of comradery....

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 3rd November 2022 "Guy the Diplodocus"

Overhead conversation at  the Mars-Kings Cross interstellar transit hub:

Them / They 1: "Since heterosexual female macaques mount other females, and heterosexual male bonobos allow themselves to be mounted by other males, it’s reasonable to presume that they also feel pleasure from switching over to the other side."

Them / They 2: "Feeling out of control is intimately related to anxiety. What is it about being submissive that can make it thrilling?

Them / They 1:  "As opposed to threatening? 

Them / They 2: (Chortles) "What needs to be stressed, to the point of bend-not-break, is that because such a one-down sexual role is more or less selected for, there has to be a certain measure of control embedded in the subordinate role. 

Them / They 2: "Indeed. Consider furthermore, as an example, the fact that sexual submission sites for straight males are even more popular than domination sites - This indicates that flipping to the other side may offer its own satisfaction precisely because it’s such a stark variant."

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 1st December 2022 "Bound to Suffer"

A bedouin traveller scooped up by a psilocybinic tractor beam to an interstellar dance school where our hero meets an evil  alien gang leader escaping the clutches of her poor life choices. He makes love to her and her many hundreds of bacterial followers, joining in the fight to right the wrongs of an accursed family feud between rival combative vegetation systems. In the myriad neighbouring galaxies of Panta Rhei, post the interminable weevil-trap revolution, dark storms, results of the heterodoxy between alternative gradual nimbus instrumentation, gastric honesty and limbic psychic illegitimacy, brew like tins of magnetic marouflage, a bond of germinating universal savagery . 

This entire unfolding, including the ensuing violence between gut and lance,  takes place within a rotting tree stump in a forgotten woodland copse located 5 miles from Moose Knuckle, KY.

Tickets are available for the next instalment, priced two squeezes and a hearty swollen tongue, available from all good newsagents and parsimonious mystic map merchants...

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 16th December 2022 "The Antidotal Nonequilibrium of Pasha"

The steam train anvil follows me

To the breast of the unschooled moon

Beyond dark molasses of self

Hooked as fissures, it's craters are

Creeping skinflakes on sandpaper -

A blind midwife with a dagger 


I have woken nothing but decree

As maligning droplets of slithery dew

In dowry to the

Lankness of arid plains

Ripple as vapidness, moribund, to

the crass felicity of pains


Grey silks drape and slope

Screeched sounds fecund Houdini 

My steaming breath more than 

Carbonic to the spartan moss

Interpreting a drowning:

A wolf and eel pictorial


Wringing fatty filet cords

Drying dead mutton, clothes wet

With sapient tang, spidered trees

Bare, like the hollow

Parchments of fading dusk

My Sub-skin sinews, chilling the dunes 


Some goddess winks, a vision 

Unmasking vital organs, blooded beacons

Smelt my miscreant mirage

The rubied shingles of amity

Distil our beloved covert home

The Works FM Jonny Picklechin 12th January 2023 "Exertion"

I come back to the house of the long-ago past. And I am amazed to find its spaces vaster than I recalled—starting with the staircase, the part that was clearest in my memory. From our upper floor, I used to go there each morning and sit on the steps, in the feeble light that filtered through the entrance hall’s thick door. I always enjoyed the coolness at the hottest hour of the day. One time I fell there, and my father was frightened; he shouted and took me in his arms.

But I didn’t remember the steps as being so gradual and wide, of such massive gray stone, nor as sweeping this majestically up to the attic—though I retreated there quite often to read. You don’t go up to the attic like that in ordinary houses. Now I grasp that the house isn’t of this world—that it was laid out in another era, elsewhere. And I can almost see beings from that elsewhere grouped around a table. Under their eyes are surveys and maps, immense horizons of long limestone hills. They look at them, absorbed in thought. One of them puts his finger on a survey map, right where two little children, a boy and a girl, are quarreling over an object. You can barely pick it out on this old photograph: is it a small animal they’re holding in their arms? A small life with jerky movements and mewling cries, part of the body of one or the other, or of both? Or was it an entire swath of the enormous starry sky? That morning, the tide of the summer day, though rising, hadn’t yet effaced it. I don’t know what they held there, which they let get away; but now I watch them climb back up the staircase, hand in hand.

Nor have I forgotten that this attic—a low construction of heavy timber, hot and odorous, with a floor of badly joined planks—had served for many years as the final resting place of trunks, left open because they overflowed with old magazines and books. Many of them lay about in messy piles, with numerous volumes of I Know Everything, the “Illustrated World Encyclopedia.” The first page showed a little man dressed in black, his head the terrestrial globe. With a finger—how appalling!—he touches his forehead, his eyes lost in his dream. Kneeling before a trunk, I spend hours reading I Know Everything. I contemplate from afar, through sooty lithographs, the shores of Polynesia, with their beautiful, half-naked beings; or dreadful nocturnal rooms, scarcely illumined by oil lamps, where heads throng in a circle of light—though who they are I will never know.
