everything that i write in this thread will be a collaboration of random thoughts and poetry that ive put together spanning over a period of about 5 years in a book that im writing. i have no intentions to have it published or anything, but to provide interesting insights to the world of acid and experimentation for myself and my friends. i thought i would share it with the BL'ers because some of you may find it interesting... some of you may not of course too :) nonetheless, i hope you guys like it. and thank you all in advance for all critisizm good AND bad. i appreciate any feedback :)
i close my eyes but once a night
and drift to where everythings alright
clouds of cotton, with signs of love
assure that this is what i always dreamt of
at peace with myself i'm feeling great
im free from drama, im free from hate
terrible feelings of distress are gone
as im reassured what planet im on
trails and tunnels that last for miles
are overtaken by immaculate smiles
feelings of joy and happiness too
as i look with a glimmering eye at you
i can tell now what youre feeling as well
the look on your face makes it easy to tell
i look at you as you look at me
we both burst out laughing hysterically
angels swoop down and carry you away
i continue laughing despite what you say
ive drifted off to that world beyond here
nothing is relevant, there's no love or fear
you begin screaming as i cease to think
i reach for the vial to take one more drink
blood drops are falling like rain to the ground
your fear is evident by the ear piercing sound
the window pane shatters as you struggle to run
but the empty look flashes as i brandish my gun
the angels have burned an X in your head
you've been marked as "soon to be dead"
i take one more look at the tears in your eyes
and notice that our pupils are the same size
yet i am grinning like a madman
as you try to escape as best you can
time has stopped ticking as you let out a gasp
quickly, i lunge like a poisonous asp
death has been knocking on your door for a while
more scared than ever of an empty vial
once more the angels return on duty for one last call
this time to snatch your body, mind, soul, and all.
terrified at the sight i turn and flee
to find out soon after, that body was me.

i feel that my mindstate is dwindeling into a whirling vortex of nothingness. i feel that my overall persona is lacking in enthusiasm.

dont run because i said no, run because of your fear of the unknown. what's been lurking in the dark is yours. you created all that you see and all that you are. everything that you are experiencing, was at the snap of your fingers. your mind's been asleep all these years and now you've chosen to awaken it.
************************************************
into the ocean into the sky
heightened emotions take off and fly
chewing my nails and wondering why
i could never come down if i try
motions electric currents and colors
spazzing in time and creating others
magnificent, exuberant, bonded like brothers
"super" i say and carry on southern
great paths i follow and answeres i seek
flabergasted with beauty and unable to speak
the illuminous glow is new to me
but i continue to stare in complete disbelief
running afraid, but afraid to keep running
running from darkness to where it is sunny
the paths are lit up now the jokers' all funny
hiding however in a way i find cunning
hid behind bushes and trees i find strange
but oddly disoriented as nature's been rearranged
now following tunnels that i find derranged
but seems not to phase me as hours have aged
one step closer but too far from there
as i walk on with a lack of care
i glance at the goddess and her golden locks of hair
and her effervescent beauty, i cant help but stare
creating havok and stimulating my mind
glimmering distractions are all lights i find
greeted and welcomed by others my kind
sifting through wonderous joys all the time
waves and illusions, ripples in space
collide with my world as i come face to face
vanishing at once without a trace
leaving no evidence to prove my case
endless visions, thoughts with no end
awaiting kind strangers to meet and befriend
no hesitation to extending my hands
and the good thoughts and good vibes that they send
back to the cave as things simmer down
back to the throne where i wear my own crown
my kingdom i talk about, and all that is found
and all that must end to the glorious bounds.
************************************************
forgive me for staring into your eyes, but i figured it was alright being that you are me five years ago.

remember as you walk through makeshift fields of brainstorms whose hand you're holding for security. certain thoughts may nip at your cerebral cortex for fear of disappearing into nothingness. you may be in need of the security your mind offers in such situations.
************************************************
cry your tears, but dont be sad.
************************************************
open your mouth and release the energy that your soul devours. crisp, cold, darkness running from fear and all things good. good versus evil is what it's all about. fighting to survive on taylormade imagery. it's pathetic to think you matter in this long forshadowing of death.
************************************************
eerie thoughts of pure madness belonging once to the insane asylum. the looney bin you call home. give you one pen and four hundred sheets of paper, and you will write an everlasting tale of beauty and fear meeting in the middle to create destruction and tear minds apart from the innermost sanctions.

the time ticks away but deep in your mind... you know that it has no relevance and no longer pertains to reality or anything in relation to realism.
***********************************************
i give my mind to you
you've been a friend to me
the blood dripping on my spine
let's me know you're there
a tear runs down my face
when i think of what ive done
to think i made myself this way
it's not a pleasant thought
my brain shuts down and the world's on pause
i'm just there to fill the time
a car rushes by and shatters the barrier
night turns to day and the birds awaken
we leave the group to enter a new world
pure craziness happening on the way
alas we arrive our destination
is this what ive been waiting for so long?
could this be my kingdom?
or at least a place to hide from fear?

Hey Ryan. I said I'd look this stuff over... it took me a while, but I did. :)
Everything is great, I've enjoyed reading it all. Your quotes are fantabulous, and your writing style allowed me to enjoy rhyming poetry... I rarely ever do. One thing stuck out to me though:

This peice... there are a lot of lines in it that are kind of out of place... is this thing supposed to rhyme, or not? Know what I mean?
Excellent work... I look forward to hearning some of this from your own lips in the future.

thanks christian :) one day man, we'll trip together and you'll get to hear the random shit :) hehe i always feel happy when i say something... then i hear a room full of laughter... not nessicarily because it's funny or anything because a majority of the responses are... "dude... what the fuck?! hahaha" :) they all think im weird i tell ya... they ALL THINK IM WEIRD!!!
and also that one line wasnt supposed to rhyme there =P but with the next line :) in that one i was talking about pretty much zipping off into imaginary beauty. into the ocean (with the horizon n shit in my mind) and into the sky, are both HUGE unexplored territory for the vast majority of people and i thought it'd be sweet to explore it all :) . hehe
 
wow ryan!!! i really liked a lot of that!.
i didnt think it would keep my attention.. lol dayum add
anyawy.. i especially liked the line..
"Cry your tears, but don't be sad"
(sorry if i fucked it up..lol)
It hit me..
Wonderful pieces!!
:) :) :) :)
 
thanks BKR! hey do you remember meeting me at starscape? ;) hehe wussup? ill have more sometime, i just got kinda worn out from typing then forgot to add more hehe.
 
I have to say that you do hold alot of talent with a pen. I truly admire your work, there is much feeling and thought behind it all. I would love to read more when you post it
 
Wow these are some dozies. My fav I must confess is the first just because after the line "blood drops are falling like rain to the ground"- that's when everything happy and euphoric go crashing DOWN. And BOY did it go down hill from there. the second piece almost seemed to be a continuation- It was way slick! "Idealism is Contagious"- DjDemoDirect.Co.Uk
 
Amazing work dude, and yes you did a very farking good job with the rhyming, very rarely do you read a rhyming poem that seems to have been thought out very well and flows with the rhymed words.
And to think it was all done on acid... :) Making me miss my acid days... i WANT that mind frame again, sooooon, *makes note to go tripping*
 
thank you guys VERY much for all your kind words :)
about the rhyming poetry, it's weird, i like READING non-rhyming poetry more that rhyming, but i like WRITING rhyming poetry more than non-rhyming.
thank you guys again... and ill get to work on typing more up :)
 
Not all who replied were male
Not all who replied were guys. The thanks should be to both guys and gals- grin. Women are fundamentally a pillar of strength, I think we forget that often.
