(Revolving house - Paul Klee, 1921)


Eu caminho pela casa
escrevendo uma estória nas paredes,
deixo pegadas no teto,
recados no espelho
para as gerações futuras.

Certa vez
eu sonhei
que podia voar
e fui.


I walk around the house
writing a story on the walls,
leaving footprints on the ceiling,
messages
on the mirror
to the generations to come.

Once I dreamed
I could fly
and then
I left.

#410

(image by Keith Mackinnon)


Houve uma época em que,
ansiando por companhia,
eu passava algumas horas
sentada à porta
procurando por
vaga-lumes
e estrelas cadentes
na escuridão.

There were times
when
craving for company
I'd spend an evening hour
on the front steps
searching the darkness for
fireflies and falling stars.
