Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
Forty Two To Ninety Six (Bussokusekika)
My daughter spoke of
The important rocketeers
She meets in her job
She laughed at me when I spoke
About our missile defense
Forty two to ninety six

About this poem
My memory is not as good as it once was…Maybe when it comes to the US missile defense accuracy improving from 44% and not 42% to 96% or greater after the two trains and an Indian with a tomahawk thingy had nothing at all to do with any of this at all…But what do I know???Yeah…Aurora is a pretty smart cookie if you were to me…She even claims to be much wiser than i because she has a degree…I don’t think I’ll ever try to discuss salads with her…⛄️
