  • @rmjon23 Likewise, it is the decline of the American Indian to the peyote cult that upsets the balance of his relation to nature and to the Earth Mother!

  • @rmjon23 I cite Hoffmann, who suggested of LSD, "I don't see it as necessary, but as a tool for achieving what we are to become as human beings", which is to say, I don't think Olsen would needed peyote to touch or reach the astral or sublime quality, just as migrant farmhands on Alabama plantations reached just working in the fields from dawn to dusk, and don't need it for the same reason: Olsen _worked_! he was a postman! I doubt he saw much on his routes he needed peyote to show him later!

  • Charles Olsen was a frequent visitor to our home in Oxford Ohio in the mi 60's. My mother Joyce Benson was one of Charles' lovers. We use to visit him in Gloucester in the Summers. He was always kind to us and he would read us kids to bed with his Maximus poems to see what we thought. It was heavy stuff I was 10 years old but will never forget him.

  • Imagine being there with Leary and Ginsberg when they turned Charles on to psilocybin!

  • Is Charles the sweetest thing? I wish I'd gotten drunk with him.
