The Forest of Dreams in Consciousness

The Forest of Dreams in Consciousness 

In forest dreams and consciousness, 
the universe unfolds, 
along bright stairways of knowledge, 
where storied truths are told. 

Each level a grand finally, 
each step a secret place, 
the road to your awakening, 
awaits for your embrace. 

It begins with Psilocybin, 
mushrooms portal flowers, 
expanding soul and consciousness, 
mind that it empowers. 

Your awareness exponential, 
as mind becomes awake, 
in natures room a catalyst, 
to see that which is fake. 

Hooded beacons await you there, 
sentinels for each stride, 
so do not be afraid of them, 
they’re there to be your guide. 

Just follow your intuition, 
it’s what connects your soul, 
a part of forest essence, 
and that which makes you whole. 

Dig deep the dazzling wonders, 
where light unfolds for you, 
a universe of consciousness, 
with forests to go through.

About this Poem: The poem, “The Forest of Dreams in Consciousness” was inspired by the Deviant Art Photo above that was found in a poetry contest on AP. It was first written in couplet form (rough draft) but I have now edited the poem to rhyming stanza form to smooth out the flow.

Terence McKenna clearly came to my mind when I saw the photo. I think he would have approved of this poem. He was a great explorer of human consciousness and the realms within that connect us to the universe. The poem is also a confirmation of my own experience with mushrooms when I was 19.
