Abundance in retreat, the silkworms
Do not snatch the timely opportunity.

Dreams, however, offer some of the best "hallucinations." The following is a dream about a mind-altering experience:

Dream - Tre (my first wife) and I sat on a grassy hill in a circle of strangers which was formed around several plates of food. It was late afternoon. I played mysterious sounds (similar to Messiaen's Abime des Oiseaux) for the group until a young Black man asked me to stop.. He said that he needed some silence for the moment. An associate of his, that could have been his twin, started sprinkling some brown liquid randomly on what looked like a plate of brownies. Tre and I ate the cakes starting with the ones that the liquid had touched and then finishing the rest. They tasted very sweet.
