acha que é o rei da cocada preta







Am i pao?
like the bread. so many Portuguese slang is from food. What a vibrant place, Brazil that is. I believe I have more in common with the dark man. Though I am not a racist or anything. Life is full of vibrant colors, but the inner depth is what is lacking in todays world. A lack of love, and feeling, of depth and crying- for the inner speech to arise.

like a toddler , still you have not understood
all that is there
but now bristly the colors across your hem grow pale
from the rush of excitement to your cheeks in youth
not balanced with the silence of closure
in trembling steps, still falter
when will arise the great serpent and rush the skull
and empty the base fulfilling our eternal mother's demands
