He had eaten of the sacred toadstool, he had smoked the holy rhizome, he had carefully powdered up and inserted into various orifices the mystic mushroom and now, sitting crosslegged [before a glowing monitor], he was concentrating firstly on making contact with the strange and wonderful secrets at the heart of [Wilbur] but mainly on stopping the top of his head from unscrewing and floating away.
    Blue four-side triangles pinwheeled across his vision. Occasionally he smiled knowingly at nothing very much and said things like 'Wow' and 'Urgh.'
