  <body>&lt;p&gt;Once upon a time, walking down a &lt;br /&gt;
dusty road, I came upon a tree,&lt;br /&gt;
sprouting from it many a clouded figure&lt;br /&gt;
into the air around it, the symbiotes,&lt;br /&gt;
the poisons shooting their beauty up&lt;br /&gt;
into the chute, up through a stalk to&lt;br /&gt;
a golden coloured cap shoots upwards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I kneel down, and, carefully, plucked it&lt;br /&gt;
from the ground, holding it up to my&lt;br /&gt;
face, examining it from top to bottom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Curious of what may happen, I brought&lt;br /&gt;
the cap closer to me, and, as the time&lt;br /&gt;
passed, so too did my teeth through it,&lt;br /&gt;
grinding it to a pulp as it went from&lt;br /&gt;
my tongue, as it disseminated itself&lt;br /&gt;
beautifully through my system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wandered  down the road a little more,&lt;br /&gt;
staring into the sky, into the ground,&lt;br /&gt;
as the time passed; soon, reality began&lt;br /&gt;
to fade away, as did all colour, all&lt;br /&gt;
sight, and all sound, all everything.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Several hours later, I awoke to&lt;br /&gt;
the faces of several onlookers staring&lt;br /&gt;
down at me, their visages casting&lt;br /&gt;
statements of &amp;#8220;is he okay?&amp;#8221; and &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#8220;what happened?&amp;#8221; down onto me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Standing up, I dusted myself off,&lt;br /&gt;
and walked through the crowd.&lt;/p&gt;</body>
