Lysergic Tide
In the dead of night
Tasting winter sun
No stopping
What has started
A chain reaction...
The psychonaughts
Educational trip has begun
Lock the doors
Batton down the hatch
The only way to ride
This wild stallion...
Is bareback
Infinite wisdom....
Or cataclysm?
Stairways both to
Heaven & Hell
In peripheral vision
Thrill seeking
Magical bike ride
Batch 25
Impending doom
Back in the room
Only 6 hours more
To survive
Distorted
Space time
Origins of religion
Catalyst
Of crimes
Shadows breath as
Rationality leaves
Must laugh
Or you'll cry
Derived from
Ergot
A fungus found
In the wild
No way to tame
Albert Hofmanns'
Problem Child
Pebbles on a beach
Shine so bright
After the retreat
Of the lysergic tide
What was dull before
Now brilliantly shone
In the warm afterglow...
Of winter sun

Always such a pleasure to read a gifted writer
Thanks so much Lisa. I would class myself as amateur, but if you think I'm gifted, as you are, then I'm not going to argue lol.

I was always afraid of that ride. To many tales of those not returning.
one small trip with colors was my only attempt.Β
Your writing painted a far more alluring voyage, perhaps I let fear rob me of this acidic venture.
really enjoyed this thought provoking piece.

Thanks John, I'm so glad you enjoyed. Acid isn't for the fainthearted and there are so many other emotions/symptoms, too many to mention in a poem. I haven't done any in years. At least you had one small trip, I hope you enjoyed it.
I appreciate your positive feedback, I'm glad my words painted an alluring voyage.

Thank you Lucy, those lines were actually written from experience. Laminated flooring looked as if they were steps from the corner of my eyes. Glad you enjoyedΒ
