Description
I wrote this poem after coming back from the Glastonbury Festival in 2000 (the last glastonbury where you could get in for free, I have not been back since as the tickets sell very fast). I had a really good time there and on the Saturday I swaped some weed for some mushrooms and went to the trance tent where Eat Static, Hallucinogen and System 7 played for most of the night. Absolutely brilliant, I was very high in (free) festival with lovely peaceful people and the music was amazing. The music was like a veichle driving me higher with every beat till I felt like I was in pure ecstacy. However it was also quite a scarey ride, but with it in the end.
Even though I do not do any drugs or alcohol now, that experience will live with me forever, and I still believe that everybody should do a least one well controlled mushroom trip in their life (As long as the person is mentally fine)

Lyrics
Seeing with such delight
Higher than a kite
Richoceting sounds in my head
Over my body weighting like lead
Outstanding designs flowing free
My mind sent to infinity
Scarying the hell out of me
So this is ecstasy

(I know technically the first letter from each line spells out SHROOMSS, but it had to have those lines in order to fit)

Left you guessing...
I was going for "shortest comment". A Homer Simpson "doh" would have been too long.

Anyway, I remember my "best intoxication" quite clearly from my college days. I'll leave you guessing as to whether it was beer, hemp, touching or Caravaggio.

festival
music for sure. I think after it, or on the camping terrain. Chilling, laying on your back and staring at the blue heavens above. Wicked tune, a mysterious happy tune.

I agree
Everyone should Trip on Shroomies at least once in there life ....because you dont really understand life until you see with Mushroom eyes . The mushrooms made me understand them one time and now I have the utmost respect for them ...really its like I cant see a mushroom without understanding the great connection between everything . How its soul combined with my own and intermingled and helped me to expand how I thought and felt about the earth around me ..the precious and fragle cycle and the bigger picture and the smaller picture...and even the air now has a special meaning to me . I love you shroomies . And a good clean Acid trip is always enlightening as well ...Great song indeed .

Thats correct
I'm really pleased to see that you have experienced the delight, if every one had a good trip there would definately be less harm in the world esp harming the planet. Thanks Benny for listening and for your great comment. Take care.
