I Guess They Did Not Know Me (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



I Guess They Did Not Know Me   (Bussokusekika)

It’s a crying shame
Not even my family
Has been sealed by me
They too will suffer their fate
IF and when my friends do come
I guess they did not know me

About this poem

As I have mentioned…I am the alpha and the omega…The first and the last to have been sealed with my seal…I am beginning to wonder IF The poison I have ingested was tailor made from some of my dna gathered by some of the all mighty powers that be???Oh well…I sure hope the ambrosia my friends shared with me in the 70’s keeps me alive until they return…Of course all of this could be attributed to my delusions… Only time will tell…I guess we will have to stay tuned to find out what develops…Who are my friends and family???Only God can answer that one…
