Description
Born in the mediocrity of this world...to die in the same way.This is the embryo of Mankind...This is life...and death.
Cântico Negro
"Vem por aqui" - dizem-me alguns com olhos doces,
Estendendo-me os braços, e seguros
De que seria bom se eu os ouvisse
Quando me dizem: "vem por aqui"!
Eu olho-os com olhos lassos,
(Há, nos meus olhos, ironias e cansaços)
E cruzo os bracos,
E nunca vou por ali...
A minha glória é esta:
Criar desumanidade!
Nao acompanhar ninguém.
Que eu vivo com o mesmo sem-vontade
Com que rasguei o ventre a minha mãe.
Nao, nao vou por aí! So vou por onde
Me levam meus próprios passos...
Se ao que busco saber nenhum de vós responde,
Por que me repetis: "vem por aqui"?
Prefiro escorregar nos becos lamacentos,
Redemoinhar aos ventos,
Como farrapos, arrastar os pés sangrentos,
A ir por aí...
Se vim ao mundo, foi
Só para desflorar florestas virgens,
E desenhar meus próprios pés na areia inexplorada!
O mais que faço nao vale nada.
Como, pois, sereis vós
Que me dareis machados, ferramentas, e coragem
Para eu derrubar os meus obstáculos?...
Corre, nas vossas veias, sangue velho dos avós,
E vós amais o que e fácil!
Eu amo o Longe e a Miragem,
Amo os abismos, as torrentes, os desertos...
Ide! tendes estradas,
Tendes jardins, tendes canteiros,
Tendes pátrias, tendes tectos,
E tendes regras, e tratados, e filósofos, e sábios.
Eu tenho a minha Loucura!
Levanto-a, como um facho, a arder na noite escura,
E sinto espuma, e sangue, e cânticos nos lábios...
Deus e o Diabo e que me guiam, mais ninguém.
Todos tiveram pai, todos tiveram mãe;
Mas eu, que nunca principio nem acabo,
Nasci do amor que há entre Deus e o Diabo.
Ah, que ninguém me dê piedosas intenções!
Ninguém me peça definições!
Ninguém me diga: "vem por aqui"!
A minha vida é um vendaval que se soltou.
É uma onda que se alevantou.
É um atomo a mais que se animou...
Não sei por onde vou,
Não sei para onde vou,
Sei que não vou por aí.
By José Régio.

I look at it and think "i need to delete that... and that... why did i take that picture?" Seriously. Your amount of favorites should be proof enough that you are an amazing photographer.

I'd love to be bilingual
