The Bluebird

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I’m not going
to let anybody see
you
 
there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pour whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he’s in there.
 
there’s a bluebird in my hear that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the works?
you want to blow my books sales in
Europe?
 
there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody’s asleep.
I say, I know that you’re in there,
so don’t be
sad
 
then I put him back,
but he’s singing a little
in there, I haven’t quite let him
die
and we sleep together like that
with our secret pact
and it’s nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don’t
weep, do
you?
