I could be wrong. I've read Burroughs, and Ginsberg, and Leaves of Grass (ostensibly Whitman wrote this while chewing calamus root), and seen what drugs can offer.

But I think that we leave a lot of necessary art uncreated, and a lot of avenues of personal satisfaction unexplored, if we don't try to work sober. I'm just so over all of the darlings of postmodernism. We need to build anew.
