Analysis of Someone Should Just Put It Down (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Someone Should Just Put It  Down   (Bussokusekika)

I’ve always wondered
How far a camel can walk
With a broken back
I thought that I was in pain
How about that poor camel
Someone should just put it down

About this poem

This one is jest a silly poem about nothing in particular…I don’t believe that even I could help that poor camel even if I wanted to…Especially while listening to Jimmy Buffet reminiscing of San Benito in Baja…https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ue2-ZVxpVjc&pp=ygUcbWFyZ2FyaXRhdmlsbGUgamltbXkgYnVmZmV0dA%3D%3D
