9. Sacrament of The High or Stoner Stuff

Reflections on The Way of The Outsider

by Monde Mdodana


Them and them can't globalize it,
Can't commercialize or tax it so they won't legalize it.
Health Gurus and tobacco merchants polemicize,
But we let 'em be 'cause we're too High to criticize.
Them and them live a low life; they need to navigate The High.

We choose The High 'cause low lives are hypocritical;
Declare a war on drugs but them and them regulars at the pharmaceutical.
They need to navigate The High.

Haters of the unbound they are; they interfere when we meditate.
But, unfathomable, we inhale and elevate.
High, Higher, and Higher still; to the summit of the Soul.
We ascend, only to descend again;
The smoke in our lungs unites summit and abyss paradoxically.
Them and them live a low life; they need to navigate The High.

We don't flee into the hopes of a better tomorrow;
We are immersed in the smoky eternity of here and now!
They commune around the market place and buy, buy, buy!
We commune around the Herb and become One through The Sacrament of The High.
