António Canova, Cupido e Psiche (detalhe)

Tu eras também uma pequena folha
que tremia no meu peito.
O vento da vida pôs-te ali.
A princípio não te vi: não soube
que ias comigo,
até que as tuas raízes
atravessaram o meu peito,
se uniram aos fios do meu sangue,
falaram pela minha boca,
floresceram comigo.

Pablo Neruda

Dido, Here with me

Salvador Dali, Mulher à janela

Dúvida

Amor
a tua voz
e a minha sensação de vácuo

de liberdades paralelas
ontem
esquinas encontradas
no ângulo dos lábios


Amor
a tua lâmpada de nevoeiro
sulcado
manhãs de aves
súbitas
com noites inventadas


nada
é o teu rosto
insectos de vertigem
sem paisagem.

Working Class Hero

As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can't really function you're so full of fear,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
There's room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
A working class hero is something to be.
A working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me,
If you want to be a hero well just follow me.

John Lennon
