Understand that if you or I decide to have sex, whether safe, safer, or unsafe, it is our decision and other people have no rights in our lovemaking. Until I'd enjoyed being fucked I had not reached balanced manhood. When you overcome your fear you understand that gender has its own prison. When I meet heterosexual men I know they have experienced only half of love. All men are homosexual, some turn straight. It must be very odd to be a straight man because your sexuality is hopelessly defensive -like an ideal of racial purity. The sin of the people of Sodom was a lack of hospitality -they rejected god's angels and for this they were punished. The myth of sexual licence is a myth. The lack of hopitality that we have received in my lifetime reveals a true Sodom in the institutions of my country. Heterosoc, imprisoned by monogamy in the ruins of romantic love, is quite dumbfounded when faced with our plurality. WE are the 11,000 angels dancing on the head of a pin. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- 4-A Modest Proposal by Terence McKenna A drug policy respectful of democratic values would aim to edcate people to make informed choices based on their own needs and ideals. Such a simple prescription is necessary and sadly overdue. A master plan for seriously seeking to come to terms with America's drug problems might explore a number of options, including the following: -A 200 percent federal tax should be imposed on tobacco and alcohol. All government subsidies for tobacco production should be ended. Warnings on packaging should be strenthened. A 20 percent federal sales tax should be levied on sugar and sugar substitiues, and all supports for sugar prdouction should be ended. Sugar packages should also carry warnings, and sugar should be a mandatory topic in school nutrition curricula. -All forms of cannabis should be leaglized and a 200 percent federal sales tax imposed on cannabis products. Information as to the THC content of the product and current conclusions regarding its impact on health should be printed on the packaging. -International Monetary Fund and World Bank lending should be withdrawn from countries that produce hard drugs. Only international inspection certification that a country is in compliance would restore loan eligibility. -Strict gun control must apply to both manufacture and possession. It is the unrestricted availability of firearms that has made violent crime and the drug abuse problem so intertwined. -The legality of nature must be recognized, so that all plants are legal to grow and possess. -Psychdelic therapy should be made legal and insurance coverage extended to include it. -Currency and banking regulations need to be strengthened. Presently bank collusion with criminal cartels allows large-scale money laundering to take place. -There is an immediate need for massive support for scientific research into all aspects of substance use and abuse and an equally massive commitment to public education. -One year after implmentation of the above, all drugs still illegal in the United Staes should be decriminalized. The middleman is eliminated, the government can sell drugs at cost plus 200 percent, and those monies can be placed in a special fund to pay the social, medical and educational costs of the legalization program. Money from taxes on alchol, tobacco, sugar, and cannabis can also be placed in this fund. -Also following this one-year period, pardons should be given to all offenders in drug cases that did not involve firearms or felonious assault. If these proposals seem radical, it is only because we have drifted so far from the ideals that were originally most American. At the foundation of the American theory of social polity is the notion that our inalienable rights include "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." To pretend that the right to the pursuit of happiness does not include the right to experiment with psychoactive plants and substances is to make an argument that is at best narrow and at worst ignorant and primitive. The only religions that are anything more than the traditionally sanctioned moral codes are religions of trance, dance ecxtasy, and intoxication by hallucinogens. The living fact of the mystery of being is there, and it is an inalienable religious right to be able to approach it on one's own terms. A civilized society would enshrine that principle in law. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- 5-Sea and Moon Mother by R P Kryder Scintillating song of primordial stuff, the human aura is the egg of gestation. Sleep, sleep little golden chld in the womb of uncousciousness. They breath is the waft of wind issuing through the umbilical wild. The froth of the farthest wave breaking scatters atomic bubbles in moonlight. Oh, Mother of majestic change! What in the tale of Thy evolutionalry caves protects humanity from waking? Floating in the amniotic sea of cosmic dust the moon rises slowly through the trusses of the waves. Membranes of rarified matter separate sea and sky, sun and moon, I from Thou in Thy double Eye. The transmission of light caught in the matrix of water reflects illusion in the sea of time. Oh, Mother of Sea and Moon! Let us breathe softly though Thy body of vibrations until we are ready to awake. Incubation is the secret sublime. ____________________________________________________________________________ ____ END TRANSMISSION
