Soon Even I’ll Wear A Mask (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
About this poem
Just a silly poem about the life and death and rebirth of a mediocre poet…I wonder IF I have picked the perfect body???I guess we’ll just have to wait and see IF I can truly claim that I was a poet even long before I was a gleam in anyone’s eye…I don’t know if I would go as far as saying even before creation..,but for some silly reason I felt as if I should toss that one out there…
