Sometimes I can’t decide if this— Copyright 1965-2008 by Dennis Gallagher —
is fragile or enduring.
Tonight, at the Rajneesh beer garden
I saw a senior sanyasin
escorting a couple of reporters
and she looked so worried…
I wonder if Bhagwan is the glue or his ideas
and as I write this, I know
its him; the living master
with him the forms could change
but not the essence
without him no form will be more
than a casting of how it was last
and each change or embellishment
will dilute those last echos
until finally the living word
will have been erased
and we will have only another name
to add to the list…
Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed….

to higher consciousness
but that doesn’t mean
you sleep with everyone
or anyone
just anyone you want to
who feels the same
That’s a far cry
from the outside world
where sexual communications
are such baroque overlays
of urge and training
and suppression and guilt.

Wednesday, July 6th, 1983 Morning Thunder
The dawn thunders over the Buddha hall
as the army of orange gathers once more
for Satsang with the Master
and we, who are we, my heart probes
ditch diggers and doctors
dark gypsies and fine spun high born
faces born of any crowd
save the filter of their hearts
which has passed them thru
to where the dawn comes like a lover
over the Oregon desert
and the gift of enlightenment
is a real promise.
