Writing while high

Flying to the clouds

By Novel AllenPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

It's medicinal.

For my pains.

But,

Seriously,

The unicorns are out tonight.

There is fairy dust dripping from their horns.

Ha, ha ha. It tickles.

What did you say?

Am I flying?

Yes. Really high.

Wheeeeee!

Is it an innocent plant?

Can I fly?

It's legal. Medicinal. Not everywhere though, not yet.

What about the people 'inprishoned', imprisoned, ha ha, for selling or smoking what is now medicinal and legal?

Do we still lock us up for getting high on medicine?

Poor things! So unfair.

They suffered, so we can be free.

Song as old as time.

Beauty and the beast.

We should revisit the tale.

Revisit our souls.

Are we meant to be judge, jury and

Executioner?

I will think more on this when I land back

On the ground

And I am not soaring above the clouds

Catching the birds

Flying by

And smiling

Can birds smile?

When did it get to be today?

My head hurts a little, I think

I'm on a high

Touching the sky

I feel no pain, I think

I'm gonna take a nap now

See you all later.
