Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



What Of Your Next Thousand Years   (Bussokusekiryu)???

It is about time
My Father has decided
To take me away
From the three’s utopia
After all I’m nobody
What of your next thousand years

About this poem

Just a silly poem about nothing in particular…I wonder IF anyone else has tried combining a Bussokusekika and Senryu before me???
