Nightly she sings This bird of fire Deep within the park, Her warbled song Of fierce desire A spark within the dark; A song of urgent majesty The lilt of coming tragedy; Nightly she sings Her heart exposed As if her breast Had burst enclosed; Her song a clarion in the night That breaks upon the coming light; So mad and wicked in her passion, Her honesty, odd, and out of fashion; It pierces hearts grown hard with age, The barred look upward in their cage; This howling music of the senses Indifferent to its consequences, Stirs the weary mind to wake Condemning sleep, to still, partake.
