Licínia Regateiro
Eyes diluted
Where childhood’s trains
Never circulate
Dreamed of journeys
Nailed into the skin
Darkened by solitudes
To find serenity
In the absent
Affections
Of an old
Boy
Alone
In the ashtray of postponed days
Crushed butts
Of the capture that oppresses
The muzzle
Vi
Dissolved anxieties
In a gesture
Efficient
A guillotine for emotions
Unconfortable
No more do nettles
Coil around
The chastised flesh
Abulia
Silence from the abandoned keyboard
Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angels’ orders?
Rilke
Surrounding us
a circle of shadow
where there are no
trails
in mute trampling
in the space of
where there are no
trails
the field grows
in excess of words
where there are no
trails
in intimate silence
the angels moor
on the other side of the sea
