A Boy Child Was The Result (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



A Boy Child Was The Result   (Bussokusekika)

Many years ago
While I was in the spirit
My sister in law
Was looking for a clavo
Para sacar la otra
A boy child was the result

Edwin Tanguma   Aka   Dagesh

About this poem

The spirit led me to give her instruction on what his name should be…She did not believe that she could become pregnant after such an incident…His name is Emmanuel to this very day and could she be considered a virgin if she has never given birth through her vagina?Could this have anything at all to do with Isaiah chapter 7?Maybe not…It could have just been a casual affair…Oh well…My two biological children may have a half brother…I told my daughter about this incident the other day…But she too believes that I am a nutcase…Scorned women do the strangest things to get even…Such is life…And some women never forgive their husbands for such things…They even do much worse to try to even the score…But even I have limits on how much infidelity and punishment I can bear…My children are all grown and I believe I have endured enough punishment for them…If they choose to treat me as an outcast for no longer wanting to endure such treatment from their mother…So be it…His full name is Emmanuel Gastelum in Wasco, CA…If anyone is interested you can delve deeper into this story if you wish…I believe DNA does not lie…We humans do the silliest things…My daughter believes I had an affair at Gaviota…I did not go through with it…But I do regret my actions on that day…Maybe one day she will forgive me…Only time will tell…
