[ WP ] You are a member of a counter-culture movement whose recreational drug use has escalated to ingesting drugs that are known to only have negative side effects .

I remember the days of'63 down in Santa Monica, California. There was me, my life long friend Chuck, and a couple guys we met down by the beach who just wanted to form a little music group and work on some jams for the people. We rented out a small apartment with a garage at the time that opened up onto a beautiful shot of the beach you could see prismatic light bouncing off every lapse of the mysterious depths. Like one unstable aquamarine gemstone lying on the banks of a desert. At the time Chuck was bringing jars full of joints through as he had a cousin up the way growing something at least twice as potent as anything else around. Well we started to play some gigs to anyone that would take the courtesy of sparing us an ear. On the side we were starting to manufacture and distribute cannabis and hashish in the pursuit of free knowledge. The message was starting to grow through the music, along with my studying into Hermetic law, notions of higher existence through love were truly permeating our collective that was building. Well about a year into our adventure and exploration of the realm of sound there was a new drug influencing many other local artists. This drug was known as LSD and so we set off on obtaining some in hope it would improve our cause and creative endeavors. Two years later a full blown movement had risen from the divine inspiration of this chemical. We were distributing hashish, marijuana, and any hallucinogens we could get our hands on to show the beauty of this existence to the masses. To show what this world could become with love and compassion. The essence of the female merging with the drive the logic of the masculine could create a more compassionate world and possibly upon the new dawn this world could reach true harmony! The mechanical beast was in motion and soon we were'turning on' people's consciousness to higher octaves than the people knew lied within. It was all in the pursuit of a more harmonic and understanding world. Chuck would occasionally allow his shadow to overstep his usual immense empathetic nature toward others, but it never appeared it would become an issue. How wrong I was to not make sure my brother's lamp stayed blazing. He was slowly spiraling into the void in the background of all the excitement of a true revolution of the people unfolding. Soon enough PCP came into the picture for Chuck. He was losing it to his ego and it warped him into some sort of monstrosity similar to Hyde. He became self concerned alone and our organization went with him and this new drug. No longer were we on a mission to save the world this was now an endeavor for profit. Nobody cared they were throwing themselves away, nobody cared they were giving people poison, nobody longer cared for the earth our fair sister or the universe whose womb we reside. All we built crescendoed down into oblivion. with Chuck out of his mind there was no more melody in my heart or in the streets. Our movement for peace, equality, unity, and respect was ruined by selfish nature. The wind no longer sings it's song to those who only want to hear themselves speak.
