as pessoas precisam de pessoas
as bocas de bocas
as mãos de mãos...
os olhares de olhares
e os risos alimentam-se de risos.

I am no grateful
“
Do not think I am no grateful for your small
kindness to me.
I like small kindnesses.
In fact I actually prefer them to the more
substantial kindness, that is always eyeing you,
like a large animal on a rug,
until your whole life reduces
to nothing but waking up morning after morning
cramped, and the bright sun shining on its tusks.
”-Louise Glück-Gratitude
