I remember....I think.
I remember, I think!!
I remember
that smokey joint
the aroma so heady,and sharp,
the world a buzzaround me,
as coals glowedlike in hades,
with demonshypnotizing the mind.
Yes, I
inhaled, I admit it,
and I breathed an
expansion of my thoughts
back out in a cloud
far above nine.
The slow meltinginto a blur,
and the ecstasyof each minute
floating skywardwith my mood.
The taste of acold iced tea
each individualingredient expanded
beyond any flavorsever known.
The hungerto devour all
and the intense bite
of that first cigarette lit
then the longhours studying
the many varied colors,
sights and sounds
that were neverquite seen
in like manner before.
I rememberthat smokey joint
as I sit ponderinga newport
and a matchthat will
in no way enlighten
me as much asthat smokey joint
I inhabited long ago.
