birdwatcher's song

The bird that flies so gently the bird red and warm as blood the bird so soft the bird that mimics the bird who is suddenly afraid the bird who suddenly hits himself the bird who would like to fly away the bird panicked and alone the bird who would like to live the bird who would like to sing the bird who would like to cry out the bird red and warm as blood the bird who flies so gently it’s your heart pretty child your heart that beats its wings so sadly against your breast so strong so white.
