Analysis of Though Ya’ll Can Do Your Own Math (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Though Ya’ll Can Do Your Own Math   (Bussokusekika)

Math’s not my strong point
Ten minutes to scramble jets
Plus fifteen minutes flight time
F-16’s at full throttle
Laughlin to Van Horn Texas
Though ya’ll can do your own math

About this poem

Don’t mind me…I’m just having foolish silly thoughts that aren’t meant to make any sense at all…Well…I believe ya’ll can stick a fork in me…I believe I am done for the night…Ok…Daniel 2:34…here’s a little milk for ya’ll…Could said stone mentioned be my inkhorn???Who knows???
