Welcome to the Polemics of Jack
These are the ashes of an extra-ordinary Journey, inward, in Word. The Polemics, as I lovingly refer to my writings, are intended to be a collection of short articles, art-i-facts, journey notes, diagrams, ecstatic poetry, slights-of-hand with Compass, Square and Pen, written exclusively under the influence of Mind-Soul-Manifesting Agents, secret and sacred. For those not familiar with the word ‘polemic,’ it means ‘WAR,’ and every man is Jack.

Seven Years Facing a Wall
It’s been a huge learning process for me every step of the way, because the general trend in the world of psychedelic medicine is towards the clinical pathway, which is built on future fumes and has claimed millions of dollars and attention. Meanwhile, one person is dying every 10 minutes or so of overdose, and it costs a mere $10,000 to save that person’s life and a pathway exists NOW, outside the US to interrupt addiction with ibogaine. I feel that we as a society have become numb to the tragedy inherent in these numbers: More people have died of overdose than in many wars. Just today If one hundred people gave one hundred dollars we could save a life. Many people might spend that much several times a week on a meal.

I’m reaching out with humility and hope. After struggling with addiction for years and coming to the realization that typical treatments were not working I made the choice to seek other options. Ibogaine sounded like the answer to my problems I was told didn’t exist and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to receive help from Awake to get where I need to get to start my life over. Any contribution, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and generosity.
