Why I want to legalize everything

I want to change the world.
I want us to stop hurting ourselves.
I want to make drug use safer instead of more permissible, but doing one does the other.

I want to keep people dedicated to a variety of experiences, regardless of the risks, out of prison.
I want to stop persecuting those most susceptible to risky behaviors such as drug use, such as the poor and the youth.
I want to save the brothers who feel like they can't feed their family without selling work.
I want to save the lives of all those people shoved out of cars at hospitals during an overdose.

I want to keep the profits from the sale of drugs, because they will always exist, out of the hands of criminals.
I want to make it possible for those who want to manufacture and distribute recreational drugs to do so without being necessarily violent.
I want to make drug dealers "recreational pharmacists".

I want to let those who wish to medicate themselves do it in peace.
I want to open the door of these experiences to all
I want to want to free our minds

I want to change the world...

I wanna get high.

Bottled Love

A hit of you causes a stinging reverb pulsing through my brain
Lip to lip
Like an acid trip
In a jewelry store in Spain

Because I love you
(love, here, meaning a glamorous state of ephemeral depression),
Because my affection manifests itself in forms of pulling and tearing
At the skin on our faces,
I will grind your words through the mincer of my day-dreaming mind
When they don’t stick to the script

Because you are coming
I will upturn roots, hoping you will trip
Cut out the tags and spill things
I will twist the actions until I have sculpted the perfect form of tragedy
Wait for me to sink to the bottom of the glass

You can stand there
I’ll fawn over your detached nature
Revel in my goosebumps
Sway my head until you agree
The hottest love has the coldest end

--

You bought a case
With which to chase
Shots of nervous lust

Stopper knot
You forgot
The bottle opener of love
