Hi guys, I wrote this last night when under the influence (a couple shots of acacia brew). I hope to write more DMT poetry, it's a good tool for loosening up and accessing inspiration - Jen DANCING IN THE ALL Dancing in the light dancing in the dark either way I'm on the mark either way it's all a lark both ways I'm being me it's my choice, I'm free I am all the colors and all the shades in between I am all I've ever seen all I was and will be it's all me reach out and touch reach out and know no place to hide no place to go tag, you're it you are the sun the earth the sky you're dancing in the All and so am I copyright 2006 by Jenifer Ransom

I like it I have a question for you tho if I may; What species of acacia are you working with? I ask because I know of only a few people that have taken acacia orally. How was your brew prepared? I like your sig too btw

The first two lines actually came to me earlier in the day and they struck me as a good beginning. then when I was feeling the DMT effects, the rest of it just flowed, I made very little changes after the frist draft. What species of acacia? I don't know, actually. I'll ask my supplier and get back to you on that. As for the exraction method, I've been doing three extractions of one of two cups of the leaf. boiling them in two liters of water each time, ending up with 300 to 400 ml of brew altogther. Great stuff! I just got into DMT this past year, it's been quite a journey of discovery. I'm very grateful!

The fact that you are using leaf has me even more curious!

Hi Tribal, My supplier got back to me, sez he thinks it's Acacia longifolia but isn't sure. What other form would acacia be other than leaf?? Now I'M curious!

bark,root bark. Think its all good in aussy! or is it aussie!!! Peace,Kija.

also some species of acacia have potentialy poisonous compounds in the leaves and the dmt must be A/B extracted before use. I beleive longifolia phyllodes were used to kill or stun fish in small billabongs by aboriginies.

BEING THE NEW Now I see how I see is what makes new world, new me, and I intend to transcend, I know how, come with me now, the rules we'll bend and make our own, hear the tone, we'll make our way, again we'll play upon the shore, those days we thought would come no more, we've gone so far yet no distance, it's been so long yet all transpired in an instant, let us be, running free, new we, new world, literally.

Hear the tone

[quote:3572e2c456="Tribal Dreamings"]Hear the tone [/quote:3572e2c456] Yes, as Jim Morrison sang in When The Music's Over: I hear a very gentle sound Very far Yet very near Very soft Yet very clear Come today Come today I swiped "come today" for my poem.

I wonder if Jim ever found DMT?! It seems a shame to me that some one so visionary could miss out on this gift.

[quote:8afbb271d7="Tribal Dreamings"]I wonder if Jim ever found DMT?! It seems a shame to me that some one so visionary could miss out on this gift.[/quote:8afbb271d7] Good question. He was deffinitely into acid, he was doing it practically every day during his most creative songwriting period, before the band formed and hit it big. He also smoked tons of dope in his time, and would take almost any other drug that came his way, but alcohol became #1, unfortunately. Now, he may have done mushrooms, in fact I'd be surprised if he hadn't. But it does seem that he never got into DMT in any significant way. I do feel LSD freed up his creativity to a great extent, though. I believe Strassman writes about the creativity-enhancing effects of acid in his book about DMT. I was watching the DVD of "The Doors Live In Europe" (which I highly recommend), Grace Slick talks about how when they were in Amsterdam, where drugs were openly available, they would be handed drugs on the street, and most of them would save the stuff for later, but Jim would take everything that was given to him--ON THE SPOT! He lived by these words of William Blake: "The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom." As you can probably tell--I'm a huge Morrison fan.

hehe you and me both delphine! It is unfortunate tho that when the road to excess involves alcohol there is only so far u can go and and only so much wisdom one can see. I love jims spoken word album 'an american prayer'. His words resonate so deeply with me.

I've tried to read his poems many times, I want to like them but to me they just don't have the impact of his lyrics. I do like this though, even though I can't make much sense of it: The Wasp ( Texas Radio and the Big Beat ) I wanna tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat Comes out of the Virginia swamps Cool and slow with plenty of precision With a back beat narrow and hard to master Some call it heavenly in its brilliance Others, mean and rueful of the Western dream I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping This is the land where the Pharaoh died The Negroes in the forest brightly feathered They are saying, "Forget the night. Live with us in forests of azure, Meager food for souls forgot" I will tell you this... No eternal reward will forgive us now For wasting the dawn And one morning you awoke And the strang sun And opening your door...

love it...I recon his talking about halucenogens and the lost art of transcendence. It (to me) also expresses the pain of knowing. Also thrown in is some christian guilt. He just loves his obscure metaphors yeah i love it!

(This really happened when I was walking down the street , my last DMT experience. ) :-) HAPPY BIRTHDAY BALLOON Happy Birthday balloon on a magenta ribbon tied to a a hedge, silver, purple, yellow, pink, orange, blue, green stars and circles, shining, twirling, dancing in the breeze, in a surfeit of ecstasy. The balloon knows, the balloon shows it's the birth day, the mirth day of the free me!

Cute Poem, I like it. Was it your birthday that day? If so, Happy Birthday delphine!

[quote:6ddf5c9ffd="blackclo"]Cute Poem, I like it. Was it your birthday that day? If so, Happy Birthday delphine! [/quote:6ddf5c9ffd] Thanks, I thought it was very synchronistic, not because it was my birthday, but because it reflected my mood as I was tripping on a low dose. I guess I will think about how I can make that clearer in the poem--that it was not my literal birthday, but a "new birth" in a different way. Hey, don't you have a birthday coming up this month? I seem to recall you said your b'day was in November.
