bonesandroots: criminalwisdom: Photo by Mike Brodie all drugs and alcohol engender a kind of spirit possession. when you take them you are ridden by their spirit. spirits crave physical forms. people say they do this to relax or let go, to escape. they do it because it’s more predictable than sober life. these spirits always want and need the same things, they always make you feel the same, they gravitate towards, or create through our hands, the same environments. this is why we do them. when we relax or let go, they take over. escape attempts that evolve something new to escape from. ironically this is also a good definition of how our idea of progress works itself out. maybe it is also a spirit that posses? hungry ghosts. anyways, the spirits of drugs even make us cultivate the plants they come from, they make us part of the plants life cycle, like bees. money and guns are part of the life cycle of coca plants now, because of the spirit of coca. poppies and hemp have also greatly increased their chances of survival, propagation and proliferation through us. companion species. Prohibition and moonshining were also the spirits fighting for embodyment. even tobacco. a spirit that embodied itself through slavery. i read an account, in a book called Pharmako Poeia, of some South American indigenous peoples who become addicted to tobacco in order to go through the process of quitting it. they say the spirit of tobacco is a real bitch and the only way you learn from her, to gain powers from her, is to quit her.  sometimes poetry is a technology for making choices.
