You should try a "real" Forth, an ANS Forth system. The ability to parse
the code input stream is very similar to Lisp macros and the interactive
development style on something like a REPL in most Forth systems feels a
bit like in Lisp. But sometimes it is difficult to program without a GC.

http://factorcode.org/ may be interesting, too.
