Corrosive Green

Imagecorrosive green   
a whisper across my tongue   
forcing introspective prosecution
a ballad repressed and for ages unsung

offspring of fire   
shelter of men
the fabled tree of life
bids chemical gateways to open

senses extended
brainwaves distended
the joyous slave found euphoria
while the cancerous heart pretended

they roam the streets of our cities
selling enlightenment for a fee
but all that I seek in you   
is all I will ever find in me       

Spirits ascended
reality suspended
have any of you found this euphoria?
or is it just my heart that's pretended

language escapes the quivering mind
paranoia locks confidence behind gate and key
all that I seek in you
could easily be found within me

Selling enlightenment for a fee, the image that looks like weed, I interpret this poem as herb culture. Am I close?

im thinking about cutting the picture, because i think it gives too much away and i want this to be thought about more.
