《Bluebird 蓝鸟》by Charles Bukowski 忒忒绿2022-06-05 16:34:00

I happened to see this poem entitled bluebird, and wanted to share it with friends in MYSJ. Hopefully, you enjoy reading it.

The author:
Charles Bukowski [1920-1994] was one of the most famous of the American poets of his time.
 

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 ****s and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he's
in there.

there's a bluebird in my heart 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 book 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 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?

在外面。匆匆读了一下，什么意思呢？忧郁？为什么还打了*号？

凤好：）那是个不雅的词汇

谢谢绿绿分享。布考斯基的诗有点啰嗦
