So Says The First And The Last (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
About this poem
This one came to mind after reading a few passages…Genesis 18, Ezekiel 9, Zephaniah 2…But why should I go on???I sure hope that whomsoever has my signet seal returns it to me before it is too late…My Father’s hand is stretched out still…
