There’s a slight
     fever followed
          by cold
               sweats and the shakes
                    as magic mushrooms 
                         claim control
                              of you.

Your conscious
     mind then
          slowly slips 
               out of sync
                    with reality
                         and delirium starts...
                              your

roller- coaster ride!

Your mind went right to the mushrooms. I HEAR They are quite the ride. I think I would be afraid to try it. Well done, Emile. Congrats.

Thanks Andrea, yes back in the day I went on a few trips, but memories are better remembered than repeated, especially today my friend, stay safe, Emile.
