Torquato da Luz

“Talvez assim eu possa finalmente
Segredar-te as palavras que não soube
Dizer-te no momento em que te vi.
Pela primeira vez e, de repente
O mundo foi tão grande que não coube
Na minha voz e logo emudeci.”
Torquato da Luz

nobody but you - by Charles Bukowski

nobody can save you but
yourself.
you will be put again and again
into nearly impossible
situations.
they will attempt again and again
through subterfuge, guise and
force
to make you submit, quit and /or die quietly
inside.

nobody can save you but
yourself
and it will be easy enough to fail
so very easily
but don’t, don’t, don’t.
just watch them.
listen to them.
do you want to be like that?
a faceless, mindless, heartless
being?
do you want to experience
death before death?

nobody can save you but
yourself
and you’re worth saving.
it’s a war not easily won
but if anything is worth winning then
this is it.

think about it.
think about saving your self.
your spiritual self.
your gut self.
your singing magical self and
your beautiful self.
save it.
don’t join the dead-in-spirit.

maintain your self
with humor and grace
and finally
if necessary
wager your self as you struggle,
damn the odds, damn
the price.

only you can save your
self.

do it! do it!

then you’ll know exactly what
I am talking about.

“nobody but you” by Charles Bukowski from Sifting Through the Madness for the Word, the Line, the Way, 2002

e eu que achei que a passarela era um passo e, nesse passo, passava era ela, e eu perdia o ar, morria mas passava bem, atravessava a rua, a cidade, os séculos, e até o domingo
