A POISON TREE

I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I watered it in fears
Night and morning with my tears,
And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine, -

And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning, glad, I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.


William Blake


Escolhemos tingir o útero do nosso descontentamento da cor que nos apraz.
Perante o juízo da consciência invocamos a passividade.
Mas também por ela somos responsáveis.
E, por vezes, aporta-nos a algo que não antevíramos.
Julgamos que a mudez fará com que a imagem se desvaneça em pó. Ainda assim, ela pode reagrupar-se para formar algo bem diferente do que supuséramos.
E o vírus infecto é bem mais difícil de desconstruir.
Meros pensamentos.
Fins de contos de fada.

Nothing can stop you
Nothing can break you now
This is'ness has put you out of business

Bought and sold me
I'm lonely
I will admit I'm lonely
Just keep on walking
Act like you don't know me
Disown me
Go ahead disown me

It doesn't really matter
At all
Nothing seems to matter
Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can break you
Nothing can take you now
Nothing at all

Let me down easy
Speak softly
Let me down gently
I realize it must be
Disorientating
What was I
What was I saying

Doesn't really matter
Anymore
Nothing seems to matter
Nothing at all
Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can take you
Nothing can break your heart
Nothing at all

Nothing can hurt you
Nothing can bring you down
Nothing at all
Nothing can take you
Nothing can break your heart
Nothing at all

This is a matter
This is a matter
This is a matter
This is a matter

Nothing can wreck me
Nothing can take me down

Como sentimos o nada?

Sinto o vazio, a transparência de ser, a invisibilidade.
O anonimato de hora de ponta no metro.
Ausências de evasão para lado nenhum.
Não estar.
Não ser.
