Darlene Glória?
No, my love.
Love in a city is not a city
In love.
Nor is it any formal statement,
Any plausible declaration at this age
In which we (the participants, not the city)
Should care to divulge.
Nor a stage – uma etapa –
Por mais ulterior que pareça
Pra quem possa apareçer.

The foreknowledge of a kiss?
Beijo de cabeça baixa.
De olhos tão fechados
que de espremidos
would exclude such uncertainty
The better to consider your certainties
Were you ever certainly
to entertain the mere risk
of it all?
** ** **
No.
You.
There.
All for me.
Let me watch you
Bend back
In words
Darlene Glória
You…
Yes...
Acquire.
Never
again to relinquish
my dearest angel
the world entire.

Ô Iara, claro que eu quero tua visita diária. Mas o texto, mesmo que seja mais em inglês do que português, não é tão complicado assim. Ah. E se não der pra entender, cá entre nós, você não perde muito não.
