I begin to ache for Canada.— Copyright 1965-2008 by Dennis Gallagher —
I miss the country, the people,
the politics and the morality.
I can see the sidewalks
and the clouds over Vancouver.
Feel the rhythm of her streets
and the straight forward honesty
of her people.
I tire of this plastic competitive
capitalistic wasteland.

Somewhere she touched me
and led me new
thru smiles and feelings and honesty.
Now I wait on her smiles
and feel each moment with her
pregnant with the joy
of breaking new ground.

Sunday, January 27th, 1985 Every story or fable about the Masters
misleads us, subtly.
We see how they are
and translate it to see ourselves, there.
And, thus, when we imagine ourselves as they are,
we always see ourselves
through the eyes of others.
It's again the difference between
being and trying to be.
We must find the secret within us.
Utterly disconnected from
all imaginings, posings and motives.
We must become the light of unity
unto ourselves,
born only of ourselves.
