I remember the second time i experimented with psychedelics i had a tape of Piper at the Gates of Dawn with Saucerful of Secrets. I was in my room at my parents home without car and alone with this tape and a walkman. That recording was my security blanket. I looked out at the wind with "matilda mother" in my head. Smiling to the "outside". I was only 17. That forever lasting moment was one of the most connected i've ever felt with the universe. Everything was simply "yes".........Jesus bled.....pain is red........i'm alive.....flowers thrive.....realize!..........look at the sky look at the river....isn't it goooood?........the most comforting whisper.......prophetic.......my consciousness floated right out the door........
