Tripping on acid the other night And staring at the clouds, the trees I realized that I just wanted To be seeing the trees as they were Rather than as a shifting pattern Synthesized in a lab somewhere To separate fully What is seen what is there
And after the day was done And I climbed in to my bed, Realizing that it no longer smelled As much like trees as it did Sweat, *****, and smoke, It took me quite a while To fully fall asleep
