Silver Words featuring Joe Williams - WINNER of the Australian Poetry Slam State Final 2026.+ Spoken Word Open Mic
"The Chocolate Gulliver and his stories are Legacy, Manhood & Mythology forged into expression through human form. Tempered in the American concrete jungle, the real world lord of the flies. He has invested 20yrs of Service, travel, study & research into Humanity and it's needs. His mission, building the first of Humanity's Outposts (.com).
A self-proclaimed Modern day Independent Indigenous Anthropologist, as a first responder/Medical professional he has dedicated his life to looking after the most vulnerable of each population he has been blessed to serve. & Now, He has held his tongue long enough... His mission, to create a real-world localized resilience template repeatable by medium to small townships that fosters the essence of what he overstands as the basic needs of human beings, a location capable of responding to the troubled times we currently find ourselves in."
