I Have Walked In God's Precepts (Bussokusekika)



I Have Walked In God's Precepts   (Bussokusekika)

Mankind has been judged
The sentence is in process
It may still be changed
If my signet is returned
I have walked in God's precepts
And I have communed with God

Dagesh....a.k.a.   Edwin Tanguma   6/30/2022

About this poem

Many years ago I found a small signet seal and I sealed myself with it and judged and sentenced mankind...IF my signet is not returned to me soon the end result will not be pleasant...I sure hope that whoever is in possession of said signet returns it to me soon...Oh well...Only time will tell IF all of this is real or only part of my delusions...

    Is this a funny poem to tickle our fancy ? If you don't want to lose a ring never take it off !I have had a wedding ring on my finger for 65 years, how's that for a keeper ? The moral is don't over eat in life to keep your ring looking good !

      All of my poems are meant to be funny Dougla$Irishman... It was more of a seal than a ring...I personally believe that it was the seal of the living God...But what do I know??? Anyhow...After I sealed my self... I tossed it away where it was picked up by a Lompoc, CA police officer... Who knows where it has traveled since??? Oh well... I still believe that I am the Alpha and the Omega to have been sealed with my signet seal...lol
