Analysis of I Hope I’ll Be On That Ship (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
I hope I’ll Be On That Ship (Bussokusekika)
My friends don’t like war
But they are prepared for it
Man don’t stand a chance
They will only need one ship
To destroy all of mankind
I hope I’ll be on that ship

About this poem
I am trying my best to give mankind the benefit of the doubt and a chance to avoid certain end results written in my book of the lamb, which is the Holy Bible…But it would seem as IF mankind is set in its ways…I am still holding out my hand with the hope that my signet seal will be returned to me and that mankind will be given another change to change its ways…Of course mankind has been given freedom of choice and my friends will let mankind choose for themselves which direction they choose to proceed…The choice is yours…Oh well…I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens…
