Some call it active detachment. Not aloofness. Rather, it’s a laid back understanding that the universe is a complex system that our limited nervous system cannot fully grasp. When you adjust the scope and breadth of information that you receive then new vistas open up. The doors of perception creak open. Then all of a sudden you see everything with a new clear and perceptive eye. It’s foolish for me to try to describe such a highly personal experience. Imagine trying to explain the act of coitus to someone who has never had the experience. In-possible! Then why do we keep on trying?

A stoned monkey responsible for civilization? Entirely possible. Primates like to bite, suck, and nibble whatever looks tasty. Surely, we knew about the mushrooms as we crossed the savannas and forests. The effects would’ve elevated the geometric and abstract thinking of the eater.

And everything looks beautiful
Ahh
Everything so lovely
Oooo
The grace of moving our hands
The road twisting and turning
Undulating
The beat
Summer
Wow dude
The heat
Fingers intertwined
Legs entangled
In all the coiling tendrils of experience
Mood
Little Fluffy Clouds by The Orb
