There’s
a little bird
On
a manmade perch
And
he’s looking down at you.
You’re
so fine, your cheekbones
Rise
high as he flies, he knows
Sometime
you’ll die,
Then
your bones become dirt
And
your dirt intertwines
Mixed
so fine with a little bird,
Waiting
in line, the worms dine,
And
they squirm under boots
As
you stride, head held high,
Dust
the dirt from your button down shirt,
There’s
blue sky in your eyes
But
on earth there is hurt
And
you’re walking right by
And
you’re kicking up dirt
It
is filling your boots
It
is choking the sky
And
the worms don’t take notice,
To
them you’re sky high,
So
you cough and you curse
But
you don’t see the hurt,
Just
a little bird
On
a manmade perch
And
he’s looking down on you.
