So Like Candy

(...)

Here lie the records that she scratched

And on the sleeve I find a note attached

And it's so like Candy

"My Darling Dear it's such a waste"

She couldn't say "goodbye", but "I admire your taste"

And it's so like Candy

"So Like Candy" (MacManus, McCartney)

História da Carochinha

(...)

I met a girl, she was a complete mess

I should've left her well alone (but oh no, not me)

I had to see if underneath that dress

her heart was really made of stone.

The Frog Princess, The Divine Comedy

Discurso do Método

Never seek to tell thy love,
Love that never told can be;
For the gentle wind does move
Silently, invisibly.

I told my love, I told my love,
I told her all my heart;
Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears,
Ah! she did depart!

Soon as she was gone from me,
A traveler came by,
Silently, invisibly
He took her with a sigh.


Love's Secret, William Blake

"I like my body when it is with your body. It is so quite new a thing. Muscles better and nerves more."

E. E. Cummings

Alegoria da Caverna

Dizem-me: És um homem das cavernas. Tens de cuidar-te mais. Pôr hidratante no rosto.
Acedo. Ponho o hidratante.
Instantaneamente, os olhos ardem-me. Dizem-me: Não podes pôr nos olhos. Só à volta. É forte demais.

Eu dei isto na escola.

A matter of taste

There are two types of women.
Those who expect you to lick their asses. And those who expect you to
lick their wounds.
I've always carried a taste for blood.

Ricochete

Y uno se cree
que las mató
el tiempo y la ausencia.
Pero su tren
vendió boleto
de ida y vuelta.
Son aquellas pequeñas cosas,
que nos dejó un tiempo de rosas
en un rincón,
en un papel
o en un cajón.

Como un ladrón
te acechan detrás de la puerta.
Te tienen tan
a su merced
como hojas muertas
que el viento arrastra allá o aquí...

Que te sonríen tristes y
nos hacen que
lloremos cuando
nadie nos ve.


Aquellas Pequeñas Cosas de Juan Mannuel Serrat
