quem sou eu

31.8.16

Lonely girl**

she is sitting
the world doesn't exist
the window is open
warm breeze brings her emptiness

she is breathing
the earth doesn't hold her
the door is shut
warm air carries her blessedness

she is inert
the fields are denuded
the footpath's just disappeared
green leaves blew her conscienceless

she is a lonely girl
there's no nuisance
no real hassle
solely peace in abundance.


Inspired by Dorothy Ashby's tune "Lonely girl"

Embraceable you**

Here on the far shore
a mirage is what appears
on the horizon of my eyes;
the intersection of sea and sphere
in a curved line
enfolds my shoulders
and I feel in safe hands
as free as waves
coming and going,
rolling unceasingly
in a kind of blue
as clear as the water
as infinite as the sky
as tender as the far away
embraceable arms
that carry me now.

Inspired by Georgie Gershwin's tune "Embraceable you" (Wynton Marsalis version).

Lonely fire**


tiny sparkle of light
there you are
refulgent inside your flame
that burns meticulously
inch by inch
there's nothing left
that could not be reached
your solely singular radiance
reflects upon surfaces
that surround you
it doesn't really matter
you seem lonely
as your luminance vigorously
widens the whole site

what incinerates
right inmost
belongs to you,
lonely fire:
image that coils
smoke that arouses
heat that emanates
all in you, lonely fire
coruscates far beyond.

**inspired by Miles Davie's tune "Lonely fire".
