gateway music and how i became an international criminal freak :) 5

here is a review of how all this started.
i was married i was straight-edge i used punctuation no, never mind let's just say before i ever did any psychedelic i lost myself (for the millionth time) in life in my wanderings i met infected mushroom's "symphonatic" completely by chance. it came with iTunes
and ah said dayum what is this music? this is the futuretastickest music i ever heard like sonic science fiction
so i got bp empire and chewed on that for awhile and it tasted pretty good but the real chocolate was on classical mushroom and the first sound bite i had of classical mushroom got me so high i felt every chain on my brain slide right off and every tiny hair on my body went sproing like an antenna trying to make contact with aliens and i knew myself new all over electrified and psychedelicious :9
and this was the first psychedelic i ever had: psychedelic trance and of course (i reassured myself) i'd never do real drugs did people actually take halluuuuucinogens anymore? everyone knows they are BAYAD
and then (me still nominally sober, unless you count the music) these people showed up in my head and demanded i tell their stories and i met one boy who'd been forced into taking an experimental new halluuuuucinogen and he told me some pretty wild shit oh it sounded bad to be him. BAYAD and extremely fascinating
so whilst writing this novel i decided to check out some facts online to see if the main character wasn't just making shit up and i expected to find stories of self-destruction and tragedy america's big boohoo crybag of cautionary drug tales and found quite the mixed bowl instead about all sorts of journeys into the hot core of what alive & thinking meant and perspectives from hell and mountaintops and inside-out places meeting god and Odd and Faberge machine eggs laid by fat fuzzy caterpillars and fed off by plugged-in butterflies and becoming forest elves and laughing children in towers and pyramids and other lightning-ready locales
were people who took these drugs just different from me? who could imagine teasing the dragon if you changed reality how could you ever stop a nightmare ever again "oh go away you're not real"? but that's broken now, haha, the devil has you... plus it was illegal !!11#$%@!! schedule 1. schary. new level of "what if you never come back"
but the curiosity remained
and a friend of mine said, lo and behold, here is a legal hallucinogen that sounds a lot like "salvation" (but didn't particularly taste like it) nice 'n' short too so even if it sucks and you hate it you're in like Flynn then out and about
so i had my first launcheon date with lady salvia and thought the cleverest bit was the forgetting ("losing insight") and coming back a bit to remember oh yeah, this farm i am suddenly on is not where i normally hang out and neither is this big animal maw i'm in but in any case i yearned to be somewhere beyond the bottom of a well or getting squashed unpainfully under big dogs and rolling ferris wheels on salvia i wasn't getting beyond a certain threshold: the whole break-on-thru bidness. so that's what it meant and i knew i hadn't broken-on-thru so...
the spores of my next adventure floated in the air, but nobody came right out and offered me shrooms. even fellow musicians never talked about it til i made the classic n00b crude overtures my laughable discreet subtleties completely WTF: 'you wouldn't happen to know a reputable um mycologist?' or 'i'd like to get some cubes' puzzled reply 'cubes? like what, ice? rubik's?' me: 'cubensis. boomers. jebus christ, man, i'm asking if you have any shrooms.' 'oh!' embarrassing. felt like someone's dad talkin drug lingo picked up off erowid
had to chase down my big illegal adventure at night on a bike on rainy Brooklyn streets picturing broken glass and guns and getting shot by some skanky guy with one eye hiding behind a hollywood canister flaming garbage cuz, you know, "drug dealer" mm who just turns out to be some ex-cub scout in a hoodie and here's your eighth. riding home with pocket full of schedule 1, passing some cop cars, heh heh not the droids you're looking for
waited a month to open it. looked like a pile of pre-smoked cigarettes. expected a nasty taste. but i like unleaded mushrooms a lot too so :9 and OMG YES and...
that's just phase 1 of the revolution but shows how a perfectly good law-abiding citizen can turn into a Dangerous Criminal despite all Scheduled threats if they couldn't stop my cautious law-abiding ass how's that shit gonna hold up with people who really don't give a crap but that's another whole can of worms right there ain't it?

Year old or not, that's some quality posting. Even though I didn't understand half of it.
