Analysis of Maybe My Son Has Something (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Maybe My Son Has Something   (Bussokusekika)

My son may be right
I told him of my changed plans
He looked at me strange
And said dad they’re catfishing
I looked up the word and thought
Maybe my son has something

About this poem

Maybe it is time to wake up and face reality…It seems as IF I made a wasted trip to Bakersfield…IF there was any evidence of my land here it has been erased…I’ve only discovered crumbs…There are 3 deeds recorded that I believe are questionable as is mine and two with perfect notary seals…And one of them belongs to the said Paul Amato who sold me my land with its current questionable deed…Wouldn’t you know the document is one giving him trustee rights…Go figure…
