Sometimes I can see Jesus stood it and sometimes I see that Buddha did too but as yet it seems a bit strange that I should be able to too. The fullness of the light waiting for us to break through. Here at home, through our own stained screens with tired people and our mortgaged dreams, that it should be here it still seems a bit new. gallagher 24Jan72

Rose II
I find it in the reality of her
that when she looks on me
its a good place to be
and so I clove to her
that the me she saw

Someday
Someday, like now
I will open these eyes
and forget ever seeing before
as I soak the idenity of each thing
into myself
as deeply as I can drink of it.
On grass clouds I will walk
beneath fire skies
and trees that talk
into the churning malstrom
to feel my skin melt into the air
as I become free
becoming me.
