Michael Bailey:
excellent 1st trip ... anybody could learn a lot
about set and setting from that. It's still pretty mysterious,
especially acid: how such a tiny, almost homeopathic dose
could have such large effects
Not my first acid trip---that came six months later. Not my first
Trip, that came six years earlier.
Part of the point, for me, is how these alternate realties appear.
Acid is not the key, but it was a key for a crucial time.
The issue for me was unmediated beauty--It'll rip your lungs
out Jim--and the notion of the Angel of Beauty, like Temperance.
Cyprian, no doubt, is approaching something bigger than acid,
as will 'Pert & Kit and others. We Fly Towards Grace.
