Fotus De Mulheres Nuas

Acts


acts are remote clocks

are steps in the air shouting

voices are a series of words in the hands

the pulse of the shadows

are great pains

silhouette

death in the mother's missing clothing

are my eyes on her

watching the sea and my back

alternately

are my eyelids shut up

and close the soul

is air

increasingly difficult

the heat leaving the cold

bankruptcy and the monsters that shelter

is silence on the empty plain

voice and the echo alone

waiting until the pain

the lightning split the land and remove

blood in the mud some brightness

something alive

is that old age is not as far away

tiredness on waking

is the still air of hopelessness

or the sum of the actions that accumulate errors

is my sadness

of others that I cherish with care

remote time clocks mine.


White Blisters Throat Hurts Swallow

A chorus ... I threw burning


A choir my eyes and your eyes dancing

the veins

touched the earth revived

wind

wind pushed

the air like leaves

crosslinked

blooming

born just blind air

as

white pages

about to experience

your leg my leg a duet

in this country written by ghosts

even swam in the wind

in making a groove straight

the leaves yours

unnamed

looking for your hands in the air

we crossed

your voice my voice to smoke

looking for your word I say

the tree rooted in you

where I long to lose.
