lovingly embrace someone among plant life

Once upon a time, as a whim­si­cal 22 year old couch-surf­ing va­grant, I passed parts of the sum­mer play­ing gui­tar and lay­ing in the grass of parks and/or apart­ment com­plex lawns, be­cause even though I al­most nev­er go out­side, some­thing about rolling around in the dirt grounds me in a deep­er emo­tion­al sense. I re­al­ly had no grip on my emo­tions at that time, but amidst the chaos it ap­peared I may have en­tire­ly cre­at­ed for my­self, it’s the first in­stance I re­call of gen­uine­ly try­ing to transcend.

On one of those grassy af­ter­noons, I was joined by an at­trac­tive hip­pie-haired stranger, who told me how he had just re­al­ized the one­ness of every­thing and found peace, then asked if I want­ed him to show me. We pressed our palms to­geth­er and silent­ly stared at each oth­er all goo­gly-eyed for like a le­git hour, then hugged and part­ed ways forever.

I don’t know if the en­er­gy I felt flow­ing through me was spir­i­tu­al, sex­u­al, a con­tact high from some­one else’s LSD trip, or just the ob­scene heat of try­ing to hold hands in Sacra­men­to sum­mer, but it was in­tense enough that I re­mem­ber and ac­count for it as an ac­tu­al step in my jour­ney, to wher­ev­er it is I am find­ing my­self now.
