Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
How much had he had to 'smoke' when he wrote that?

Let's be fair: Coleridge was an opium fiend. William S. Burroughs or
Aleister Crowley is probably literature's best known smackhead.

Hmm...well if they want to get the religions of the romantics into it

of his head on
laudanum, unlike Coleridge.
Better poet too.
