There Are Loose Ends To Cinch Up (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



There Are Loose Ends To Cinch Up   (Bussokusekika)

I’m sorry ladies
I’ll not be chasing Ziggy
And the morning light
I have things to do
And a few places to go
There are loose ends to cinch up

About this poem

I do believe I need to schedule a CT scan next…I was told it’s a process to determine asbestos exposure…I used to wonder why my lungs always looked so white on my x-rays…I guess now I know why…Jumping through hopes is a Marine Corps pastime…lol…Maybe I’ll hang around for 3 moor beers…I’ve learned by slowing my breathing it helps quite a bit…
