.#.#.#.#..  WE DECIDED TO SMOKE THE DRUG IN A BARN  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  THAT HOLDS GREAT NOSTALGIA FOR US ALL.  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..    WE WENT INSIDE AND TO THE HIGHEST     #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#   FLOOR, WHERE WE SAT DOWN IN THE HAY.   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..                                          #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#    AFTER A WHILE BEGAN THE COLLECTIVE    #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  PROCESS OF ROLLING ANOTHER JOINT, BUT   #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  HERE OUR FRIEND STARTED TO LAUGH THEIR  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  MOST FUCKED UP LAUGH, AND WOULDN'T STOP #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#           FOR SEVERAL MINUTES.           #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..                                          #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  WHEN THEY CAME TO THEY SAID THIS TO ME: #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..      OUR FACES HAD BEEN SHAPED LIKE      #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  PENTAGRAMS IN THE DARKNESS OF THE BARN, #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  WE WERE LONG WORMS, WITH HAIRY TUBULAR  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#     BODIES DANCING FROM SIDE TO SIDE,    #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..        BEGGING FOR CIGARETTES...         #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##

.#.#.#.#..   OUR LINGERING CAME TO AN END WHEN WE   #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  HEADED INTO THE CITY CORE. FOUR HOURS   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. AFTER OUR FIRST TOKE WE FOUND OURSELVES  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#    IN A DARK SLOPE BENEATH A GIGANTIC    #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..               WATER TOWER.               #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. THE TIME WAS IN THE POST-TWELVES OF THE  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  NIGHT WHEN WE ROLLED A JOINT WITH PURE  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  CANNABINOID-LEAF, NO TOBACCO, AND I WAS #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#         THROWN INTO A NIGHTMARE.         #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..                                          #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  AS I WATCHED, THE CITY BECAME A WALL,   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. AND I WAS HANGING ABOVE THE WHILE WORLD  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  IN A STRANGE AND UNDERWORLDLY FOREST,   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. PUSHED UPWARDS AGAINST THE GROUND BELOW. #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..     I WAS THEN STRUCK WITH THE MOST      #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  POWERFUL FEAR. A FORCE COMPELLED ME TO  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  SUBVOCALIZE, BUT THE WORDS WERE NOT MY  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                   OWN:                   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..                                          #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  ~ IT ~ SHINES ~ THROUGH ~ EARTH ~ AND ~ #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..   FLESH ~ ALIKE ~ AND ~ THE ~ LIGHT ~    #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  WILL ~ FIND ~ YOU ~ THE ~ LIGHT ~ WILL  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  ~ DEVOUR ~ YOU ~ YOU ~ WERE ~ CHOSEN ~  #.#.#.#..#

.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..    I COULD NOT MOVE, AND MY VOICE WAS    #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#   SMALL WHEN I ASKED MY FRIENDS WHY WE   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..   HAD DONE THIS, HOW SUCH EVENTS COULD   #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#      TAKE PLACE. BUT MY FRIENDS WERE     #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..       COMPLETELY STILL AND SILENT.       #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  AND THEN, ASTRAL PROJECTION. I SAW THE  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.# CITY FROM ABOVE, FROM ABOVE THE CLOUDS,  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..   A SPACE STATION... AND THE TOWER, A    #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#   MONOLITH, UNEARTHLY WHITE, ANTENNA TO  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. SPEAK TO ME... THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VIEW.  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  I SAW MYSELF DOWN THERE, BODY SHAKING,  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..           SPEAKING GIBBERISH.            #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##

.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#.. HERE'S A WHOLE BLOCK OF TIME ERADICATED  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#    FROM MY MIND, NO DOUBT EATEN BY THE   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  DISEASE, BUT WHEN I CAME TO I HAD COME  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#   TO TERMS WITH MY IMMINENT DEATH. THE   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  CITY-ENTITY WANTED ME GONE, BY WAY OF   #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  PSYCHIC EROSION AND COLD TEMPERATURES.  #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..  IT COULD'VE BEEN BELOW ZERO. WE GOT UP  #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#  AND WANDERED THE STREETS TO KEEP WARM   #.#.#.#.##
.#.#.#.#..       UNTIL THE SUN FINALLY ROSE.        #.#.#.#..#
.#.#.#.#.#                                          #.#.#.#.##
