Analysis of One Day My Friends Will Come (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
One Day They Will Come (Bussokusekika)
I like talking with
My imaginary friends
One day they will come
And purge the Earth of mankind
For what they have done to me
I hope I’m here to see it

About this poem
I don’t know when my imaginary friends will make their presence known…But I sure hope that I am around when they do…IF I were any ordinary man I should have been dead long ago…I wonder IF it might have anything to do with the food and drink that they shared with me when I was aboard their ship?I guess that we will just have to wait and see…I hope that their Justice is as swift and as one sided as mankind’s…As I mentioned…My son is currently under some swift speedy human fair Justice…Judge him as you will…Like I have stated…There is still time for humanity to return my signet seal…The choice is yours…
