Ayahuasca Ride
He went on an ayahuasca retreat
searching for that magical seed
to lead him up the stalk to his soul's treasury.
This white-collar fellow with money to burn
sitting before an old shaman,
who'd so much to teach and
he with so much to learn-
They quietly sipped the potion -
the trip soon arrived
on a psychedelic current
virgin constellations branding the eye.
After this ayahuasca Odessey
he told of wonderful things he'd gazed-
secret places he'd breeched...
the mind expanding to the fringes of time
where he'd kissed a gilded silhouette of Jesus Christ.
He asked If I'd like to board the next mind expansion ride.
thinking about it for a second, I politely declined.
I was concerned about ingesting a bad batch,
clashing with a brass knuckled devil
mind erosion then total mental contraction.
I'm somewhat content strolling in sundial moments
reaching for the tail of miracles void of all earthly potions.
