Analysis of Call Me A Two Legged Rat (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Call Me A Two Legged Rat   (Bussokusekika)

What’s said of the rose
And all of its many names
And what of the dog
What are male and female called
Speaking of dogs and roses
Call me a two legged rat

About this poem

This one is an inside joke…In response to some of my ex’s families banter on another website…Oh well…Thus is life…Memories…My ex and her sister’s ex triumphant return from McDonald’s for coffee seemed almost as happy of a reunion as my ex and her Jehovah witness elder brother when they exited Walgreen’s…But what do I know???So much for female dogs in heat…
