Repent And Turn From Your Ways (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)

Repent And Turn From Your Ways   (Bussokusekika)

O Mighty mountain
Have I brought forth the headstone
Of Zerubbabel
Has not the plumbline been set
Did My Father not tell you
Repent and turn from your ways

Edwin Tanguma   Aka   Dagesh

About this poem

This one came to mind after reading several passages…Amos chapter 7 is one of them…Am I the two witnesses?The two olive trees and the two lamp stands?Could it be possible that Dagesh means strong light?I guess it is just one of life’s little mysteries…
