Analysis of Searching For Someone Like Me (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Searching For Someone Like Me   (Bussokusekika)

Oh softball woman
How can I say I’m sorry
If I crossed the line
I’m just a lonely old man
Who writes silly poetry
Searching for someone like me

About this poem

IF I ever find my land…I believe I can build at least 2 700sq ft structures…One one bedroom and one two bedroom…But what do I know???Aif you are not single…Please forgive me for posting this one…I still don’t know if I have 14 months left or 5.8 years left in me…Just another silly poem about nothing in particular…
