POPO2022 day 15 — 2 big 1 small mushroom

Posted by Lisa or Li on

card 15 2 large 1 small mushroom resized

in White Chub Kingdom
all subjects wear dark brown caps
they travel by threes

in White Chub Kingdom
button babies are nurtured
and never sauteed

subjects wear brown caps
of the finest soft velvet
raindrops dance on them

they travel by threes
having odd conversations
about risotto

        That post had me looking up the mushroom logo to the Allman Brothers… my mind works in strange ways.

          those could be the mind altering king. are they the same as the Allman Brothers have on their cover?

            Some yes…some are different. They changed the mushroom through the years. They would take a pill that was made from the “magic” ones at the time.

    I like risotto with mushrooms – especially the ones that aren’t poisonous! :-)
