While one does Trip…

While trippin’ what will one see?

While trippin’ I became one with the sea,

While trippin’ my mind was full of color,

While trippin’ I became part of the wall of my cellar…

While trippin’ what is reality?

While trippin’ I witnessed my own mortality,

While trippin’ I saw more hospitality,

While trippin’ I did so without any formality…

While trippin’ life was quite good,

While trippin’ of everything I understood,

While trippin’ I could have eaten wood,

While trippin’ I rarely did what I should…

While trippin’ things did occur that I did not comprehend,

While trippin’ I found that I could with others make amends,

While trippin I could to the heavens and further ascend,

While trippin’ I did smoke a special blend,

While trippin’ thank the gods for my very best friend…
