Se as sete notas das sete da manhã fossem uma
Figura, e os sons da rua sua serva, seria possível
Encontrar a relação que existe por acústica
Entre uma borboleta e uma borboleta protegendo
Em vão sua vida e cor. Não há nada de estranho
Nessa relação figural. Por exemplo, Pita
(e é a sua primeira vez) pôde sentir num tecido
Branco que chorava manso a efectiva resistência
Às lágrimas que a habita em fúria.

I will sing your name, o exalted one
I will sing your name with the ten-stringed lute
Because I have been made in a hideous and strange form
I said, if only the wind were to me like it is to a dove...
So I could fly and find relief
I would hurry towards shelter from the intense wind and violent storm
Because I have seen hardship and wickedness on the ground.

Because I have seen hardship and wickedness on the ground.
From the bitterness of my own soul I speak
From the bitterness of my own soul I speak
When I was silent, my soul was decaying from all shouting
I was doing all day long
Remember that my life is wind
I have become like spilled water
and like those that have died long ago.
And upon my eyelashes are shadows of death
Upon my eyelashes are shadows of death
Leave me, leave me
For my days are a breath...
Leave me before I go to a place from which there is no return
To a dense, dark land
From the bitterness of my own soul I speak
From the bitterness of my own soul I speak
When I was silent, my soul was decaying from all shouting I was doing
all day long
Remember that my life is wind
I have become like spilled water
and like those that have died long ago.
And upon my eyelashes are shadows of death
Upon my eyelashes are shadows of death
Leave me, leave me
For my days are a breath...
Leave me before I go to a place from which there is no return
To a dense, dark land
Oh God, don't commit the soul of your creation to a wild animal. Please don't abandon me.
Remember that my life is wind
And you have condemned me to idleness
Come listen to the song of someone who is singing in the pathless desert
The song of someone who sighs and extends their hands and says
'Woe is me! For my soul, due to my wounds, has become unconscious.'
God help me, because the day is gently fading
and the shadows of evening are lengthening
And our existence,
like a cage full of birds,
is full of the groans of captivity
Like turtledoves, we beg for justice
But there is not any justice
We await the light,
and now (this moment)... is a godsend.
The Neptune Star:
Sometimes at night we see a bright star.
This star is called the Neptune star.
This star is very bright.
The Neptune star is very close to us.
The Neptune star doesn't twinkle at us.

um olhar de impotência, quase cómico. haverá lugar para mim? ter um lugar, como todas as histórias, ao invés de estar apenas em decomposição, embora com muito apetite. sou uma garça entre as garças; não que seja elegante, mas porque as garças são todas iguais. o fim chega sem dizer água-vai e a rapariguita que dorme na enxerga debaixo da figueira, ainda sonha em dar voz ao que tem no coração.

quando escrevo, acontece-me lutar contra os modos de falar do mundo, recortando laboriosamente o meu próprio modo de falar. tal tarefa acaba por me devolver uma imagem de mim mais limpa do que outrora, que sabe mais do que interroga, que está presente mais do que é ambígua. talvez por isso escrever se tenha tornado uma necessidade.
Here form is content, content is form. You complain that
this stuff is not written in English. It is not written at all. It is
not to be read — or rather it is not only to be read. It is to be looked
at and listened to. His writing is not about something, it is that something itself.
