I Think I’ll Be Leaving Soon (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
About this poem
At times I don’t know what to think…I have been having some really strange things happen to me lately…First it was the strange animal hair on my car…And then the 3 pronged pole…And now this…I had just washed the bedding a few days ago too due to darned stains in the same area…I really don’t know what to think…Is my wife cheating on me or is someone trying to use brujerías for some silly reason?Oh well…I guess that only time will tell…I do not believe in brujerías…And I don’t think I’ll ever become a Jehovah Witness…Thank God that the Kingdom Hall is permanently closed in Van Horn, TX…. I guess my old partner was doing a fine job trying to convert me by her deeds and actions…They taught her very well that women are the head of the household…And that the men should do as the wife commands their husbands to do…I guess that we all truly are slaves and that we serve the masters that we choose to serve…If my wife was the man in our relationship…Could that possibly make me the woman?As IF I possibly could have two wings of a great eagle…And as IF my place in Van Horn, TX could be considered a wilderness…I guess that only time will tell…Sweet dreams people…I wonder exactly how much longer I will be hanging around Lompoc?I still have a few things to take care of before I go…I wonder how terrible living in a tent will be?I hope I get to do my sleep study soon…It is rough trying to overcome complex post traumatic stress due to MST…Oh well…I really do wonder at times where my little signet seal could be…And I too wonder IF God truly did create the world we live in and everything in it in 7 days?And IF such a thing were possible…Could he possibly destroy all of his creation in 1?And IF he did such a thing I doubt he’d create a paradise as a certain unnamed religion claims…As IF I could truly be the chosen one…Well I wonder IF my old partner needs to confess anything to her elder brother Benetez?Maybe that’s what the two were doing in Walgreens for two hours while her cherished husband was waiting for her in the car patiently…And she tells me to prove to her that she has been cheating on me…And she calls me crazy…She is entitled to her opinion and views…I wonder where elder Benitez’s wife was during those two hours…The two witness were very happy as they said goodbye and went their ways… more »
