Image for the poem Oh, modern self-medication

Oh, modern self-medication

Oh, modern self-medication....

In caveman days
They say
Those beasts
Ate roots
And bark,
And seeds

And these
Were all
To meet
Our cosmic thoughts
And challenge
Inner needs.


A cactus
Here
And poultice
Rare
Raised
Consciousness
Like canyons.

Those rituals
Have lost
Their place
And live
Like soul
Abanyones.
