Analysis of Shall Life Get The Best Of Me (Bussokusekika)
Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)
Shall Life Get The Best Of Me (Bussokusekika)
If I had a voice
I’d sing this song to you
As you would to me
Maybe I am just crazy
Or the one true true king of fools
Shall life get the best of me

About this poem
With each passing moment…It is getting harder and harder to focus…It could be due to the constant strain of focusing on my phones screen…If it were not for the constant popping of ibuprofen…I don’t think I could bear the headaches…So I may begin to lose focus and my ability to write any more words to you…As IF seasonal allergies could have such an effect on one’s body…Smokey the bear used to say…”Only You Can Prevent Forrest Fires…” https://m.youtube. com/watch?v=P87nnruGa6Q&pp=ygUmZXZlcnl0aGluZyBpIGRvIHJvYmluIGhvb2QgYnJ5YW4gYWRhbXM%3D more »
