Why Should I Ever Return (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



What Reason Do I Have To   Bussokusekika)

I do not know why
My Father told me to stop
Here near Acala
And not to go to Van Horn
As I thought I would tonight
Why should I ever return

About this poem

This place does not look too bad from a distance…And it looks like there is only a population of 25…And the name is even associated with Buddhism…Go figure…How’s that for the chaos principle???Who can say???
