Psychonautation

 ....A sovereign mind
Voyaging through strange seas of thought alone....

Like Coleridge's Ancient Mariner.

Only this isn't Coleridge but his compadre Wordsworth. Those two guys did a lot of such voyaging together.

As Cohen has his Jesus say,

All men shall be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them.

It's the human condition. 

Most everything else we do beside the voyaging is distraction.

And who was Wordsworth talking about? He was talking about Newton.

Had Blake known about Newton's alchemical experiments he might have been a little less stringent.

Coleridge, Wordsworth, Blake, Cohen and Newton- all psychonauts.

Sailing, sailing, sailing,

Also the Beatles in their yellow submarine.

That's so not "just a kids' song". 

Do psychonauts suffer from psychonausea?

Indeed. That's why Coleridge and Wordsworth made landfall before they sailed too far beyond the known and the understood.

Not so Blake and Newton and Cohen. They kept on going...
