Before He Breathes His Last Breath (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Before He Breathes His Last Breath   (Bussokusekika)

Don’t expect much
Though I did cleanse my body
Don’t expect Jesus
I hope you bring my signet
So that I may seal my son
Before he breathes his last breath

About this poem

Will I be the first and the last sealed with my signet seal….Only time will tell…IF it is not returned to me…I guess that what will be will be…You are an authorized representative of the Mary 3 are you not Jewel???Shall we make a wager???I may even call it a covenant…I am authorized by My Father into entering such arrangements…Don’t expect a king as viewed through the eyes of mankind…As my vows of a Nazareth…I have no idea when My Father may instruct me to cut my hair or shave…
