Birds Singing

I rise with the dawn chorus
Take my body for a walk
To pee naked I stand
on soft green grass
all of me flows south
and the birds singing
get away from here
get away form here
get away from here

Mammy used to say
to me in her way
a little bird told me
she said when I
doubted her insight
a little bird told me
so sweet mercy of life
the bird know more than
we know
