  • Oh God, that was a trip in itself. What really fascinated me were the reports on the ultra-hardcore rare stuff that I would never have the balls to try, like Belladonna Atropa (deadly nightshade). Not only can it kill you / make you really sick, but reported trips would last for days and bring all kinds of "true" hallucinations (i.e. not just visual distortions like we most commonly experience on shrooms/acid, but stuff that's completely not there and putting you in entirely different surroundings like a dream).

    I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away
