Background
A description of the experience
Opium – the Diary of his cure – Jean Cocteau
After smoking [opium], the body thinks. It is not a question of the confused thinking of Descartes. The body thinks, the body dreams, the body becomes soft and flaky, the body flies. The smoker embalmed alive.
The smoker has a bird's eye view of himself.
