Trials And Tribulations (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Trials And Tribulations   (Bussokusekika)

People go through life
And some earn an eye or two
It is rather rare
For one to earn all seven
Each eye is earned through their own
Trials and tribulations

Edwin Tanguma   Aka   Dagesh

About this poem

I wonder IF I have actually passed all of the tests My Father has placed in front of me in my life???I wonder IF my signet seal really is his way of showing me that I truly have overcome his tests???I could really care less of any and all of the tests that mankind can try to place in my path to try to make me lose my way…Oh well…I really do wonder IF mankind’s fate is Ezekiel Chapter 9???I too wonder IF Lompoc, CA could be the sanctuary mentioned in said chapter???Such silly questions…I guess we will just have to wait and see…I sure hope that my signet seal is returned to me so that mankind does not have to suffer the same fate as a certain two cities…As IF such a thing is possible…Is it???
