no. 6 (a birdsong concierto accompanied by bullet shells)
tell me, my love,
why do the birds sing
while humans are killed?
(
because they are oblivious
, you said.)
explain to me, my love,
why do humans ****
while the birds sing?
(
because we are evil
, you said.)
so tell me, my love,
are the birds
just like humans,
and are humans
just like the birds?
(
yes, because we are both ignorant
, you said.)
