Psilocybin
Some of us never stop moving,
yet never enter new places.
Others rarely go anywhere,
yet travel myriad dimensions.
It’s not always our bodies
traversing the ground
or floating across the sky
that moves our souls.
Those truly going somewhere
must take along with them
their unprotected heart,
allowing anything they encounter
to touch them profoundly.
This world is indeed kinetic.
Did you come here:
To walk or to run?
To fly or to swim?
Or just to dance?
Maybe you came
to do all these things and more,
simply by closing your eyes.
