520 |a This essay is written from the perspective of someone trained in religion and literature studies who is interested in the status of myth and ritual in the modern/postmodern world. More particularly, it seeks to raise questions as to whether a traditional mythic ritual is secularized beyond retrieving or, alternatively, given new life when "re-cycled" in the chant-poem of an urban educated American poet (thus instancing a "remythologizing of poetry" through ritual). The case examined is the use in Anne Waldman's 1975 "Fast Speaking Woman" of a mushroom-induced curing ritual, a vigil or velada involving prolonged chanting, performed in 1956 by María Sabina, a nonliterate Mazatec Indian shaman from Oaxaca, Mexico.
