Thank you! Those lines at the beginning are actually a poem... so not exactly "lyrics"? But it's one of my favorites, and yeah - you're absolutely right! It did have some influence on "Mere Anarchy" though only in a thematic kind of way. I used the concept of "things falling apart" in that story. In this one, I was playing with the hawk imagery. I'm so happy you've enjoyed both of my stories.
LSD is quite an interesting drug. VERY different from alcohol, lol! So, you might not be able to convince your friends of much with this fic.
But FWIW, I choose not to drink either. Here's what I tell my friends. "I don't like the taste. I don't like the way it makes me feel. I can have a good time without it, so why should I bother?"
Some people don't give up easily, though. My mother still apologizes to waiters for me, like it's somehow rude that I won't order a drink. Go figure.
