How Am I

The golden yellow ginkgo tree is in full bloom again
Our promise under the tree that year is now broken
Even though the blue sky is as clear as our youth
We don’t see each other anymore, we live for ourselves
 
All those greetings actually don’t involve happiness
We can only sink in those memories
Our tears drown our years, when can we be willing to equalize our regrets
What once made me whole, what once broke me down, I can’t go back anymore
 
It’s not that I’m not over you, still leaving a place for you
It’s just that for a name that I once called upon
How can it disappear completely from the stubbornness of memory
 
How are you, I say to the air, a futile emotion
An indelible love only leaves an affection that cannot be placed elsewhere
 
How am I, who can listen, travelling with my lonely dreams
I’m the shadow under the sunlight, responding to myself
 
It’s not that I’m still into you, still leaving a place for you
It’s just that for a name that I recalled again
Who will continue to finish the story without me
 
How are you, I say to the air, a futile emotion
An indelible love only leaves an affection that cannot be placed elsewhere
 
How am I, who can listen, travelling with my lonely dreams
I’m the shadow under the sunlight, responding to myself
 
How am I, who can listen, who can sympathize
Waiting alone for the sky to clear, but unable to wait anymore for the passionate embrace
 
I am fine, I say to yesterday, it’s a deal for today
Change tomorrow’s scenery, I will travel with myself
 
How am I, do you care

Let Me Feel You

Let me rest in your wild thoughts
Let me explore your untouched land of flowers
Let me feel you like cotton, like the sun
Let me unlock your skin of fresh herbs
Let me explore your chest of ripened fruits
Let me feel you like cotton, like the sun
Let me taste your white flowered liquor
Let me explore your belly of silent bees
Let me feel you like cotton, like the sun.

Hop, Hey, La-La-Lay

All is right and all is wrong, and, as it seems, not a big deal,
But someone will say 'What the hell! Homeless and penniless!'
Everything as usual, just happiness or sorrow,
But someone will say 'Ah, unlucky, what a lost soul'
 
[Chorus]
Hop-hey, la-la-lay,
Where is the questions, where is the answer

To him

How.1For you my old man and for all the old men in the world hahahaha
 
Now I want to sing
To my father who is old
Long years of advice
He has known how to give me
His hands full of calluses
Reflect so much work
I feel that what I do is very little
With this humble tribute
 
Father, you have given me so much
That I must thank you
To honor your name
I want to see you happy
Man of so many fights
To give me education
And I feel in my heart
That I must give you thanks
 
The snow of experience
Your hair has painted
In your face I have noticed
happiness and pleasure
For overcoming
long-suffering poverty
today I feel very happy
to see my mother by your side
 
Blessing
 
Chorus:
For a man who works (of course)
So many years sunrise to sunset (it's true)
A tribute to his courage
is not paid in2a day (it's true)
And for those who don't understand
What we want to say
365 days are to make him happy
 
To him, ha ha ha
 
To him,
To the father, father, give me the blessing (to him)
If you hear a lament it is from my heart (to him)
That cries of happiness
That cries of happiness, dad
Hey father, I'm singing to you crying
 
To him, to the father, to your dad
To him, to the father, to your dad
 
  • 1. I think he says 'vamos'(let's go)

You're my life

I made a cake for your birthday
Why aren't you next to me
But this truth hurts - don't talk
I hide you and still it's very clear
 
You, you, you, you, you
You can't be with another, understand
You, you, you, you, you
You're eternal love
 
You're my life, you're my heart
And the boy can't without you
You're my life and heart
And all is damned without you
 
You're my life and like a person with a nerve disease
You cause me great pain and I'm lovesick for you
You're my life, you don't understand a thing
When you look at me you take my breath away
 
I'm in pain, I don't eat or sleep
You're my wounds, but my love as well
I count to three, so you can be with me
You're my thrill, my weakness
 
You, you, you, you, you
You can't be with another, understand
You, you, you, you, you
You're eternal love
 
You're my life, you're my heart
And the boy can't without you
You're my life and heart
And all is damned without you
 
You're my life and like a person with a nerve disease
You cause me great pain and I'm lovesick for you
You're my life, you don't understand a thing
When you look at me you take my breath away
 
You're my life, you're my heart
And the boy can't without you
You're my life, you're my heart
Like vodka 'Rosie' in the drink
 
You're my life, you're my heart
And the boy can't without you
You're my life and heart
And all is damned without you
 
You're my life and like a person with a nerve disease
You cause me great pain and I'm lovesick for you
You're my life, you don't understand a thing
When you look at me you take my breath away
 
You're my life, you're my heart
And the boy can't without you
You're my life, you don't understand a thing
When you look at me you take my breath away

Ars poetica (Art of poetry)

An echo from the bottom of a heart, elusive,
Shouts to me ”Catch me, before I’m lost,
Before I become pale, I become azure,
Silver, transparent, none!”
 
I catch it quickly like a butterfly,
Not the world with my oddity to astound,
But to give a form to moments that fly
And for you, brother, me to understand.
 
And let the poem, that rolls from the strings,
Becomes, acquiring rhythm and sound,
So bright as look into the eyes
And simple as shaking a hand.

Tonight, As Usual

You came back tonight, as usual,
but I already feel you more distant than ever.
I understood, tonight, that you are not,
no, you're not in love with me anymore.
 
Tonight you look at me, but you don't speak,
I know you want to say goodbye to me,
but the tears I pour out, my love,
tonight you won't see them in my eyes.
 
Just hold my hands and don't talk,
it is an evening, this evening, like many others,
even when I will see you walking away,
even if you'll not return tomorrow.
 
The memories you leave deep in my heart
they will make me feel more and more lonely
every night when will come that hour
when you were returning, to stay with me.
 
You came back tonight, as usual,
but I already feel you more distant than ever.
I understood, tonight, that you are not,
no, you're not in love with me anymore.
 
No, you're not in love with me anymore.

Aleluja

Versions:
Čuo sam priče o tajnom akordu
Koji je David svirao da bi udovoljio Gospodu,
Ali tvoje uši muziku baš i ne štuju?
Ide ovako,
Četvrti, iza kojeg peti odmah vreba,
Dok mol pada, dur se uzdiže do neba
Zbunjeni kralj komponuje Aleluju
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Tvoja vera bila je jaka al’ si ipak dokaz tražio
Kupala se na krovu kad si je spazio
Lepotom i mesečinom svet ti zaleluja.
Onda te je za kuhinjsku stolicu vezala
Razbila je tvoj presto i kosu ti odrezala
I s tvojih usana izmamila je: Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Dušo, bio sam ovde već
Znam ovu sobu kao svoj džep
Živeo sam usamljeno pre naših oluja,
Tvoja zastava na mermernom svodu
U mom umu živa je slika,
Ljubav nije marš pobednika
Ne, hladna je i mračna Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Pričala si mi nekad davno
Šta se dole dešava stvarno
Ali sad skrivaš reči kao noge guja.
Sećam se kad sam se u tebe doselio,
Sa sobom sam i svetu golubicu preselio
I svaki uzdah koji smo unosili bio je Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Možda iznad nas Bog i anđeli postoje
Ali sve što sam naučio od ljubavi to je
Kako da nadigram bržeg iz dvoboja
I to što čuješ večeras nije zločin
Niti je poklonik koji tvrdi da su svetlost ugledale njegove oči
Ne, već je hladna i veoma mračna Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Kažeš da uzalud ime uzeo sam
A ja ga čak i ne znam
Sve i da jesam, zaboga, šta to tebe žulja?
Plamen svetlosti prožima sve reči
Nije važno koja u tebi ječi
Sveta ili iskvarena Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
 
Znam da je malo, ali sve sam od sebe dao
Pokušao sam da dodirnem jer ništa nisam osećao
Ne lažem te, nisam nikakva hulja
I iako se sve odigralo kako ne sme
Staću ispred Gospoda pesme
Ni sa čim na jeziku osim: Aleluja
 
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja
Aleluja, Aleluja

You're bad for me

Tell me how we got here
To be counting the days away from you
And as much as I no longer want to love you
That much 1 you push me to the void
 
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison
 
Tell me how you became
A prison for my heart
And as much as I want to leave you in the morning
Until night comes I'm giving my life to you
 
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison
 
Everything is changing
And all the difficulties go away
And if I have to tell you
How much we're changing
Everything is keeping me close to you
One step before the cliff
 
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison
What if you're bad for me
I want you, I'm asking you
You're my breath, I'm holding you
Even if you are a sweet poison

The Blame

There is no excuse for what I did to you
I don't deserve your forgiveness
I'm an asshole and you saw that
I know I shouldn't be calling
You're with him while I look at our pictures
 
I've lost count of the days
In which I couldn't sleep, thinking about how I'd do it do you
I miss your kisses, that's why I'm begging
 
This pain has stayed
Drowning in my tears, without your taste
This pain has stayed
Without you I don't know how to keep going on
Because I miss your kisses, that's why I'm begging
 
I remember when you were mine
You'd like it against the wall
The world didn't matter, I'd just caress your skin
It's impossible to forget your small face as we'd wake up
I broke what made you love me
 
'Leave, leave,' the last thing you said to me
And good luck, good luck, I hope you regret it
I hope you suffer and cry, that you're always ignored
And you think of me
 
This pain has stayed
Drowning in my tears, without your taste
This pain has stayed
Without you I don't know how to keep going on and I beg you
This pain has stayed
Drowning in my tears, without your taste
This pain has stayed
Without you I don't know how to keep going on
Because I miss your kisses
 
'Leave, leave,' the last thing you said to me
And good luck, good luck, I hope you regret it
I hope you suffer and cry, that you're always ignored
And you think of me
I have lost count of the days
In which I couldn't sleep, thinking about how I'd do it do you
I miss your kisses, that's why I'm begging
 
This pain has stayed
Drowning in my tears, without your taste
This pain has stayed
Without you I don't know how to keep going on and I beg you
This pain has stayed
Drowning in my tears, without your taste
This pain has stayed
Without you I don't know how to keep going on
Because I miss your kisses

Weekends With You

Spend the holidays with you, you want to go out for a walk
I want to say next time but the weather is really good
Can’t bear to see you disappointed and lonely
So I put down the paper and pen for now
Say sure let’s go
I was soaked as soon as I got out
The smelly kids by the river are like demons compared to me.
I played yo-yo when I was young, they all play Pokemon go
Welcome to the jungle
Be careful not to make mistakes in the city jungle
But smoking a cigarette is not that serious.
Some people break the law and don’t commit a crime.
Let the classics reappear
The drunkard's thought aren't in wine but in swag
 
I just want you to accompany me to relax
But you have no expression on your face
Yet say there is still something
I really don’t understand you, I thought we could
Explore the city together and discover what they have never seen before
Unfortunately you don't, I really tried
 
For you i have tried
I went to the morning market with you on weekends
But night cats are not good at doing things during the day
No one caused trouble at that place,
But I was fed up with all the Tom, Dick, and Harries there.
My lover lover lover don’t say no
I just wanna head home I don’t feel so well
I don’t like people
It’s better to watch our concert, don’t both at other times
Even if my head is empty, I can’t fit every dickface in this city.
I gotta go I gotta go
I want to go home and write a song, you can go home, and can uh...(huh?) read a book
 
Love is just a frequency
Why do you encounter so many episodes
Did we forget to think about our gap? (Yeah, probably forgot it)
Love is just a frequency
Why do you encounter so many episodes
Did we forget to think about our gap?
 
I just want you to accompany me to relax
But you have no expression on your face
Yet say there is still something
I really don’t understand you, I thought we could
Explore the city together and discover what they have never seen before
Unfortunately you don't, I really tried

Here's the Mail Troika Rushing

Here's the mail troika rushing
Along the Volga River in Winter
The coachman is humming some sad tune
And shaking his head
The coachman is humming some sad tune
And shaking his head
 
'What are you thinking of, young lad?' -
A friendly passenger asked him,
'What torments your heart?
Tell me, who made you so sad?'
 
'Oh, dear sir, my good sir!
It's been a year since I fell in love.
But the village headman
scolds me for it and I have to take it!
 
Oh, good sir, Christmastide will come soon
But she will never be mine again!
A rich and hateful one took her from me,
So she'll never again see beautiful days'
 
The coachman finished his story
And put away his whip.
'Hey, restless horses, stop!' -
He said and gave a sorrowful sigh
'Hey, restless horses, stop!' -
He said and gave a sorrowful sigh

September 7th

It's six thirty, the day is over
I remain on the window, impatient
In a few moments, with your pure bred dogs
You'll pass, nonchalantly
 
At ten past seven you'll come back
And pick the letters with the doorman
My heart keeps your steps
And the elevator keeps your smell
 
I picture myself at your door
And my smile as I walk in
And the calmness in my eyes
And the safety with which I sit down
 
But the night devastates me
My thoughts no longer are enough for me
Because it's always another man
Breaking into your apartment
Stealing through your thoughts
 
Today is September 7th
I've been writing for three years
Like a slave, I gather,
Your gestures, in secrecy
 
I make an archive of your life
In its smallest details
I know your clothes
I keep you in a journal
 
Today is September 7th
And at ten past seven you'll receive
What can be either glory
Or my last will
 
But the night devastates me
My thoughts no longer are enough for me
Because it's always another man
Breaking into your apartment
Stealing through your thoughts
 
But the night devastates me
My thoughts no longer are enough for me
Because it's always another man
Breaking into your apartment
Stealing through your thoughts

Tell Me Who Are You

I'll talk to you about my tomorrow,
you, who are only and only mine.
What a strange feeling here on the heart,
I only have your smile and nothing more.
 
I only asked for a little love,
and instead you ran away in a sunset.
Who is to blame, I don't remember,
there will be no tomorrow without you.
 
Tell me who are you
and if tomorrow is still another day?
Tell me who are you,
if you don't want the game of life?
 
Don't talk, it's useless,
all you do is to pretend.
Your eyes speak to me,
they speak only of her.
 
Don't talk, it's useless,
you know how to hurt until I cry,
and the tears come down
inside and outside of me.
 
Without you, how live in the soul,
I found myself a world of words,
ordinary excuses for us, single women,
who have lost everything in the game of love.
 
Tell me who are you (tell me who are you)
and if tomorrow is still another day?
Tell me who are you (tell me who are you)
if you don't want the game of life?
 
Don't talk, it's useless,
all you do is to pretend.
Your eyes speak to me,
they speak only of her.
 
Don't talk, it's useless,
you know to hurt until I cry,
and the tears come down
inside and outside of me.
 
And the tears come down
inside and outside of me, of me!

Let's love each other today

I feel like I don't wan't to wait, if I'm by your side
There's no future, no past
Time flies when you least are paying attention and doesn't come back
What the wind takes with it won't return
 
Let's love eachother today
There's no reason to wait
Make time and make a place
Let's stop asking
Let's love ourselves today
If you feel the same way I do
You don't have a reason to doubt
The sky is for flying
 
I feel like the time is now and it's not coming again
Dance, look at how the present moment kisses you
Vibrate*, pause the voice in your head a moment
Let your instincts take over you again
 
Let's love eachother today
There's no reason to wait
Make time and make a place
Let's stop asking
Let's love ourselves today
If you feel the same way I do
You don't have a reason to doubt
The sky is for flying
 
Let's love eachother today
Let's love eachother today
 
Let's love eachother today
There's no reason to wait
Make time and make a place
Let's stop asking
Let's love ourselves today
If you feel the same way I do
You don't have a reason to doubt
The sky is for flying
 
Let's love eachother today
The sky is for flying
Let's love eachother today
Let's love ourselves today

Hard to kill

(first verse)
'Hard to kill'
I tattooed on myself after you
You said you were different
And I didn't stop crying over you
 
This is in your blood
To use and to leave...
You make them addicted with the pain!
 
Chorus:
Cry now, cry!
And post it as a story!
It can't hurt me no more!
And beg me, beg me
Poison yourself with nicotine
But it's not gonna be you and me no more!
 
Tell people 'she's crazy'...
I was crazy to be with you, you!
And my love like me
Is hard to kill!
 
(second verse)
You're all like that
Forever - only one-night stands
You're good at talking
But in love - you are good for nothing!
 
While I was counting the days til our next date
You were counting your women!

The defeated of life

An army was passing by, early in the morning
Nobody knew where they were headed
the day was just emerging cowardly
their souls were proud, their eyes bright
they had songs in their soul, they were full of joy
they kept high their foreheads .
 
Nobody knew where they were headed
triumphantly and haughtily they walked
with the joy shining into their eyes
and the light was reflected far away
as if its destiny was too, in that day
shown much more clearly.
 
They were passing through the crowd
and a wish vibrated all breasts
always to live always to win!-
only us we were standing sad
- us, us, the defeated of life
with the destroyed ideals...
 
Us too, one morning, we were headed
- having seduced by a chimera-
with eyes burning of joy
all of us were strong, arrogant, like Croesus!
- but by midnight we had already come back
with our wings bleeding.....

After So Long

Today, after so many years of not seeing you, I came across you.
Today, I feel shivers run through my entire skin.
Today, when I had inevitable lost you out of cowardice.
Today, when I saw you in the crowd, without you realizing it
....I knew that you still dwelled in me.
 
Because, today that I've come across you without meaning to,
I relived that past that I believed was far away from me.
I feel as if I could die not having you beside me,
I don't know, I don't know if I can go on parted from you.
I love you dearly and you're still so present in me,
today I've come to realize that without you, life's not worth living.
 
If it were up to me, I would have liked to embrace you like before
and kiss those lips of yours, that were once only mine.
But I held back my desires because I knew it was already too late,
you belonged on another path, you had a different yearning
....and what once was...was left behind.
 
Because, today that I've come across you without meaning to,
I relived that past that I believed was far away from me.
I feel as if I could die not having you beside me,
I don't know, I don't know if I can go on parted from you.
I love you dearly and you're still so present in me,
today I've come to realize that without you, life's not worth living.

Solitary sins

I haven't been up for two weeks
From missing you so much, even I can't stand it anymore
Tearing little leaves off the calendar
I spend my days thinking and thinking
 
It can't stay like this
You being so far away hurts me
There has to be a happy ending
And I'm going to take justice into my own hands
 
You know that I dedicate them to you
My days, my afternoons, my nights
My lonely sins
 
Gluttony, when I eat you with my eyes, how crazy it is
I get all hot with lust all over my body
And the envy I feel when you're not here
And I swear what I feel is anger
 
If you have me by your side and you look at her
What a laziness that we live in secret
What arrogance, what greed is mine
That you are my cardinal sin
 
Just imagining you makes me brave
And even your name comes out between my teeth
You don't even realize that I write with my fingers
This story where you come with me
 
It can't stay like this
You being so far away hurts me
There has to be a happy ending
And I'm going to take justice into my own hands
 
You know that I dedicate them to you
My days, my afternoons, my nights
My lonely sins
 
You call me, I call you, I really miss you
So dry my lips from not being used
We're locked in, but we're apart
You sleep alone, I sleep in the wet
 
It can't stay like this
You being so far away hurts me
There has to be a happy ending
And I'm gonna take justice into my own hands
You know that I dedicate them to you
My days, my afternoons, my nights
My lonely sins

My Li'l Ass

Dam dam! It's not Bardot's1 ass
Dam dam! It's much more fun.
Dam dam! It's not ugly, not too big,
I never take more than one seat on the metro.
 
My ass, it's only ripe in autumn,
You shouldn't confuse it with an apple.
My ass, it's Hamilton's2 obsession,
My little man is even more obsessed with it.
 
My li'l ass3 disheartens me,
When it resembles my mother's.
I go to the gym, I put it in the air
But that's not what it prefers.
 
My ass, its father isn't St. Joseph4.
Naked, it's not Polnareff's5
My ass doesn't need a muffler6
Because it's the only place that isn't ready to catch a cold.
 
My ass, it's certainly not turkey7.
Naked, it's a collector's item.
My ass, it doesn't have Carlton's8 schedule,
But it's also not the ramparts of Carcassonne9
 
My li'l ass gets angry,
When it falls flat on the ground,
It gets red, it's not proud,
I'm telling you that's not what it prefers.
 
My ass, it's not a piano keyboard.
Naked, it's much more fun.
My ass, it's not the back of a camel,
But it's also not a mountain of snails.
 
My ass, it's only ripe in autumn,
You shouldn't confuse it with an apple.
My ass, it's Hamilton's obsession,
My little man is even more obsessed with it.

  • 2. not sure what Hamilton she's referring to
  • 3. 'Q' in French sounds like 'cul' which is the word for 'ass'
  • 4. a figure in the canonical gospels who was married (betrothed) to Mary, mother of Jesus, and was the legal father of Jesus.
  • 5. I'm assuming she's referring to Michel Polnareff (), but correct me if I'm wrong
  • 6. cache-nez, literally 'hide-nose', is like a scarf that is meant to cover the face/nose
  • 7. this feels like an odd phrase but I can't find any different meaning to it

Dance floor

Let us destroy the dance floor
Stomping our feet, killing the keds to shit
You're my ideal, I wanna make you mine
 
Let us destroy the dance floor
This task is not interesting without you
The world is so tight if you ain't mine
 
I'm drawing an ideal picture
You are in it, of course, mine
There are the sand and a long seashore
The edge of the flat world is invisible
 
I'm drawing an ideal picture
In it we, of course, are friends
But only after we were fallen in love
But in a real-life, you ain't mine
 
Do break by your feet this dance floor, but
Do not trample my heart
It's dutiful a long time ago
To you, only to you, and I can't hide anywhere
 
Do break by your feet this dance floor, but
Do not trample my heart
You're a queen, no doubt
But you have to have a spot for love
 
Let us destroy the dance floor
Stomping our feet, killing the keds to shit
You're my ideal, I wanna make you mine
 
Let us destroy the dance floor
It's not interesting without you
The world is so tight if you ain't mine
 
You can ignore me at all
Just do dance, just throw away sad
You're not mine but I ain't your friend
We have a draw for each other
 
You can ignore me at all
Just do dance, just throw away sad
You're not mine but I ain't your friend
We have a draw for each other
 
Let us destroy the dance floor
Stomping our feet, killing the keds to shit
You're my ideal, I wanna make you mine
Let us destroy the dance floor
This task is not interesting without you
The world is so tight if you ain't mine

If you ever asked

I have nothing to say
nothing to write to you
in my troubled mind
I don't know where to look
 
And if someday
if we were to meet again
maybe you would, maybe you would love me
And maybe I would tell you many things
if you ever, if only you ever asked
if you ever asked
 
I got lost in the high mountains
and in the deep gorges
and I saw bright stars
and I saw black days
 
And if someday
if we were to meet again
maybe you would, maybe you would love me
And maybe I would tell you many things
if you ever, if you ever asked
if you ever asked
 
Two days ago we met again
and you kept looking away
maybe I would tell you many things
if you ever asked.

The Ocean’s Sound

At the ocean’s sound
my mood is forlorn –
not always has feeling thus been my custom.
But a great roaring pipe
that left all music behind
when it was stirred by Patrick’s 1 fingers.

When All Of This Ends

When all of this ends
There'll be a samba wheel after the other
When all of this ends
I want to embrace my people and sing
When all of this ends
My people, don't lose your faith, your hope
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
 
When all of this ends
There'll be a samba wheel after the other
When all of this ends
I want to embrace my people and sing
When all of this ends
My people, don't lose your faith, your hope
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
 
I want to drink with my friends in Vila Isabel1
A wheel per day
From Copacabana to Padre Miguel2
Put an end to this longing
Mangueira, Salgueiro, Império, Portela3
Holding tight all through the night, dancing samba with her
Come!
 
When all of this ends
There'll be a samba wheel after the other
When all of this ends
I want to embrace my people and sing
When all of this ends
My people, don't lose your faith, your hope
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
 
I'm not losing any time
It's a sunny Sunday, a dive in the sea
I'll see my team and stay at the corner, talking nonstop
I'll go from Barra to Irajá, from Quintino to Leblon4
Wherever there's a
People all follow the tone
Go!
 
When all of this ends
There'll be a samba wheel after the other
When all of this ends
I want to embrace my people and sing
When all of this ends
My people, don't lose your faith, your hope
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
When all of this ends
We'll meet again at the table of a bar
It will end!

The raven

A calm midnight
While my soul was wandering
down the pages of a book
searching for some peace of mind
and almost asleep
I felt a faint sound
as if softly
without hitting too much
to not make noise
someone asks 'are you there?'
without hitting too much
 
In the urging cold
an ember was dying
getting lost in the blackness
of that firewood
unable as my reading
of making less harsh
my life without Lenore
who despite resting in peace
didn't make me calm
to be ever able
to see her nevermore
 
But the uncertain worry
by the noise of the door
scared me for whatever
was behind it
was it someone or not
the wood creaking
was bothering my heart
but I searched in my reasoning
for any explanation
maybe it's the wind
there must be nothing more
 
But the noise persisted
though only myself heard it
because I was crumbling in that
without thinking of anything else
then I went to open the door
but when it was opened
it didn't say anymore
than when a minute ago
didn't let me see anything
because the closed night
was shadow and nothing more
 
Impossible thoughts
in a shiver
I had now and I don't tell them
even if I were wordier
in the heat of the moment
because I said 'Lenore'
and in the voracious silence
of the night there was nothing more
than an repeating echo
as if it digested
that name once more
 
Calm and disenchanted
I was finishing
the issue when that noise
begins once more
disturbing the sadness
in the quietness of my room
the impatience makes me wild
without expecting anything more
I fully open the window
and raise the curtain
without knowing what's behind
 
And an extract of blackness
of the huge dark night
cut in the figure
of a big bird of prey
came in easily
raising its beak
with an arrogant gesture
and perched quietly
at the feet of the bed
and in that attitude
remained there like that
 
As in front of a bad joke
when I felt sad
my face has turned
into a sarcastic frown
before such appearance
and without expecting an answer
I said for the sake of it
'Hello, what's your name?'
and I remained frozen
when fiercely the raven
responded 'Nevermore'
 
I didn't remain surprised
by the lack of sense
I gave to that answer
because I wasn't expecting anything
from such a grotesque figure
but its lively expression
impressed me much more
though I said to myself
that maybe the raven learned the sound
from some regretful master
who repeated it too much
 
Staring at my visitor
that a moment ago
was not sticking
its dark face before my eyes
I said 'probably
like many other people
sooner or later
you will leave someday'
and the raven confidently
after a short impasse
said loudly 'Nevermore'
 
I thought, what a skill
has this guessing raven
to emit its caw
in the moment I want
to be assisted the most
if losing a beloved person
could ever be something
that brings you closer
to another aching soul
or its echo reduced
to the phrase nevermore
 
To the vanishing light
of the candle that barely
lightened the night
what was seen the most
was a shining eye
of that raven insisting
in fix its eyes on me
it stared and I stared
but I remained sitting
in the chair that Lenore
will use nevermore
 
And as if in loud voice
I had noticed the missing
that Lenore was doing to me
in excess night and day
and as if from me came
the aching thought
previously mentioned
that Lenore won't ever
be sitting there
the raven with its caw
said again 'Nevermore'
 
Keeping away from my mind
such unconductive issue
when I could be conscious
that maybe a miracle
from a magic incense burner
lit by messengers
of some heavenly power
a heavenly smell
was keeping me away from the torment
of thinking of Lenore
someone said 'nevermore'
 
It was that evil raven
and I asked if the words
it brought to its oral heritage
were coming from Satan
or if there was an armistice
which suspended the grief
of not being able to do
anything but talking about
the one who will never return
and being wary of myself hearing
quote the raven 'nevermore'
 
'You evil monster'
I exclaimed desperately
'Since you're so informed
let's see if you tell me
if God whose government
spans from heaven to hell
maybe wanted
to keep her in his Parnassus
and when I die, maybe
I can hold her once again'
and it said 'Nevermore'
 
'It's the time to be silent
and return to the streets
or to wherever you came from
you foul-mouthed bird'
I said decidedly
when I was freed from the sound
of its evil sentence
with imperative urgency
'I am sick of your presence
leave immediately'
and it said 'Nevermore'
 
And with the same stubbornness
there it remains yet
from its witch look
I am free nevermore
and the shadow that the candle
projects in my bed
is the blanket that my hand
tries to move in vain
or the stiff rigid swamp
from which dreaming or awake
I'll be released nevermore

poetic denseness
to leave

drawn passions

E

Stephen was absorbed in the study.
Eduviges came in, furious.
-I am sick!- she exclaimed
Effectively she was spitting excrement
Stephen, confused, avoided to say anything.
She exhorted, angry:
-Listen! I'm experimenting stomach spasms from hell!-
-It's the asparagus- he said -It was evidently poisoned-
-Stupid! You were aware!
-You're wrong.
Eduviges burped noisily
-You are spreading manure in the ether
Stephen scanned the environment
He was fully greased in the scatological element.
-Stephen, send me the specialist in enterology
He had an erection.
-In this state you're extremely arousing- he explained
Eduviges expectorated in the coating.
-That, that!- he fired up
She ejected the esophagus
Immediately she expired
Then he...ejaculated.

The true history of dinosaurs

Many years ago, once upon a time there was a dinosaur.
Many years ago, once upon a time there was a dinosaur.
Many years ago, many years ago there was a dinosaur.
In the beginning, once upon a time, many years ago there was a dinosaur.
It was little and fat in the beginning many years ago.
Then it grew (it was little) and became thinner.
It had big feet, then it grew.
Once upon a time it had big feet and then it didn't have them anymore and became thinner.
Once, there was once, once upon a time, many years ago, many years ago, a dinosaur.
Was a dinosaur once upon a time, many years ago.
Many years ago, many years ago, a dinosaur.
Many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, many years ago, a dinosaur and another and another and another and another and another and another and another and another and another and another and another and another.
Once upon other time there were many dinosaurs.
Other day there was another, and the same ones were there that day too
For a long time they lived many years ago
And then in the beginning, once upon a time, they left.

AAAHHH!

The mother of the monster was there, with the knife against the throat of her son, trying to think clearly. She tied his hands taking him by surprise while he was sleeping, and she didn't know if to kill him or to let him extend his miserable and damaging existence some years more, until the muscular tensions coming from his own deformity end up tearing him apart.
 
-AAAHHH!- she shouted, as to clear her mind from superfluous digressions.
 
-AAAHHH!- shouted the monster, terrified before the pressure of the razor blade against his throat
 
-AAAHHH!- shouted the mother, trying to scare away the filicidal impulse. The temptation was strong, but she couldn't give in, without being completely sure that she was doing the right thing.
 
-AAAHHH!- shouted the monster, to scare his aggressor.
 
-AAAHHH!- she shouted, showing him that she wasn't easy to intimidate.
 
-AAAHHH!- he shouted, overwhelmed by the impotence. Four rolls of barbed wire were keeping his arms and legs fixed the ones with the others
 
-AAAHHH!- shouted the mother, wanting to fill herself with bravery to give the fatal stabbing.
 
-AAAHHH!-shouted the monster, trying to project his voice and bringing a vibrato, to appeal the musical sensitivity of the mother
 
-AAAHHH!- she shouted, wanting to silence him
 
-AAAHHH!- he shouted, sank in the desperation of not knowing what to do
 
-AAAHHH!- she shouted, to see if repeating what she said his son could understand better.
 
-AAAHHH!- he shouted, thinking that if shouting like this kept him safe until now, the best he could do was to keep shouting.
 
-AAAHHH!- she shouted, without any reason, and maybe because it was her turn
 
-AAAHHH!- he shouted, and that yell sounded as a menace that next time he would scream louder.
 
Ok, children, that's all for today. Tomorrow we will study the letter 'B'

Beefs and cuts

Martinez enters in a restaurant. He sits. He calls the waiter.
The waiter comes near him and asks -Sir?-
Martinez answers -I want to order a rib eye steak, but please I want it well cooked.
-All right, sir- says the waiter and leaves.
But Martinez calls him again and says -I don't care how much time takes, but at all costs I need the rib eye steak to be well cooked.
The waiter replies -Yes, sir.
Martinez waits. He keeps waiting. There's a swap of people in the other tables. Some leave without being replaced by others. Few people remain. The restaurant is darker. There's nobody left in the other tables. The waiter says goodbye to the restaurant owner who is behind the counter.
-See you tomorrow sir- says and leaves
Martinez gets up and goes to the counter.
-It's been eight hours I ordered a rib eye steak- says to the owner. -And I haven't been served yet.
The owner answers -It's not done yet. Could you come tomorrow early?
Martinez says -But sir, I need to eat today!
-Well- replies the owner. -Come with me. We'll dinner at my home.
They come out. They walk.
-Surely my wife prepared a delicious meal- says the owner.
-I hope so, I'm starving- says Martinez.
And the owner replies -Don't be desperate. I live on the other block.
They enter a building. They go upstairs. The owner opens the door of a flat and says -Come in.
The wife welcomes them.
The owner says -I present you one of our customers. Mr ehhh...
-Martinez- says Martinez
The wife shakes his hand saying -Pleased to meet you
The owner says -Mr Martinez will dine with us.
-OK, I'm going to set the table- says the wife.
The owner asks -What's for dinner?- and she says -Mistletoe souffle-
Martinez says -I don't like mistletoe souffle.
The wife answers -I'm sorry. It's the only thing we have.
-In this case, I'm leaving. Good night.- says Martinez.
-Wait- says the owner. -I owe you. What can I do?
Martinez thinks.
-I know- he says.
-What it is?- asks the owner.
Martinez gives him a punch that sounds sssssssssock. The owner falls.
The wife exclaims -Eh! What are you doing?.
Martinez replies with a slap in her cheek that sounds sssssssssack.
The owner from the floor takes a gun out from his pocket and shoots at Martinez with a shot that sounds blammmmmmmmm.
Martinez falls bathed in blood.
The wife asks -You hit him?
The owner answers -Indeed.
The woman gets up and asks -What are you going to do now?
The owner gets up too, he grabs the phone and dials a number.
-Hi Rodriguez- he says. -Listen, I need you to go to the restaurant for a moment. Yes, look, in the iron there's a rib eye steak that was going to be ready for tomorrow. Well, take it away and turn off the stove. The stake was cancelled.
