God's Anger Was Turned Away (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



God's Anger Was Turned Away   (Bussokusekika)

Not a single soul
Has donned sackcloth and ashes
None is repentant
Even mighty Nineveh
Was repentant of their sins
God's anger was turned away

About this poem

That was then...This is now...IF my signet seal is not returned soon...Who knows how bad things may get...Oh well..At least I know that I have been sealed...lol
