Is This Why I Was Chosen (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Is This Why I Was Chosen   (Bussokusekika)

Of golden children
My narci and I were one
My daughter is one
I believe I’ve outgrown it
I’m perfectly imperfect
Is this why I was chosen

About this poem

I haven’t a clue why I wrote this one…I prefer the apple of my father’s eye over my worldly parents golden child…And like I’ve stated…I can’t force GW to admit there may be a connection between Lahaina Hawaii and San Benito Texas…Nor with Bruno Island either…I wonder IF we will find out in 8 days???
