			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;you are not allowed to be this person you are now. I created this person, this lovable, sweet person. you are allowed only to be who you were before: the socially awkward, can&#8217;t-handle-a-beer-or-looking-someone-in-the-eye person you used to be.&#8221;</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>e eu não sei quem me criou. quem me criou não foi ninguém, nem pai nem mãe, nem eu. talvez tenha sido o mundo e seu método de educação sentimental de cimento e vergalhão, suas porradas grossas e os tropeços das pernas. talvez tenha me ensinado a ser eu o suor que escorre nas costas, árduo, de quem andou o dia todo, ou a solidão do &#8220;não cumprimentarás o próximo&#8221; &#8211; essa vida de não olhar ninguém nos olhos.</p>
<p>quem me formou essa pessoa horrível&#8230; eu não sei. talvez tenha sido a preguiça da democracia ou a negligência da civilidade. a procrastinação da humanidade. talvez tenha sido o abandono do convívio que tenha me criado assim &#8211; tão perto, mas tão longe, prendendo pra depois soltar. </p>
<p>não fale com seu vizinho. nem com seu namorado. pode ser perigoso (deixar-se chegar). </p>
<p>***</p>
<p>&#8220;diving in too fast, too deep, head first. through hell and high tide. snatch them, hug them. make them run, then. love them just to hurt them. I am who I am: I am this small. really. this tiny, annoying thing. come closer, but not too close. hold me, but not so tight. ignore me. save me.</p>
<p>please, go away.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>vejo que cresci pelas olheiras insones que visto. vejo que estou velha por ser aquela pessoa que dormiu de menos e trabalhou demais, pelos dentes amarelados de café e cigarros, tomados e fumados de stress, pela aquela barriga gorda que me cutuca o rosto no ônibus lotado. vejo que cresci pelo mundo que me formou, sem coração e sem tempo, pela solidão imensa que sinto e que não revelo, pelos pequenos causos de ontem que parecem já tão distantes da minha juventude. percebi que cresci pelo meu sorriso, parco, que a rotina não percebe soltar. percebi que cresci, finalmente, por beber como uma pessoa adulta que não tem a inocência de criança, que afoga um mundo cinza, cerveja atrás de cerveja, porque não há escapatória senão essa, escapatória outra que não seja, no escuro do quarto, antes do sono entre expedientes, chorar.</p>
<p>choro agora, depois dos tragos pagos pelo meu salário, lágrimas de gente grande, de coração partido, de sonhos desfeitos, noites mau dormidas. lágrimas de eu. eu só. só eu.</p>

with the rough sandpaper-like<br />
touch<br />

<p>soft and smooth<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;it was a moment of quiet and sudden inspiration. I rose from my bed and suddenly I desired to vandalize things, walls, benches, doors; I had the urge to write on them, leave messages for the people, inspire them, make them look away from their cellphone screens and enjoy life. it was the same inspiration that drove me downtown, to the seediest neighborhood of the city, to enter a party. my hair uncombed and very insane, my clothes were old and not fashionable, but I was there just to walk against the crowd, rubbing skin and elbowing and pushing, trying to cause a reaction, trying to cause commotion. people were there, all sorts of colors and eyes and mouths, having sex in the bathrooms and drinking, dancing &#8211; a fun party. but I was never one to dance, and I was there to change, both myself and the rest of us all. I was there trying really hard to start a fight in the naked, absurd heat of the place, needing to punch someone, craving to take them outside, yell, punch kick and get punched and thrown down, and pinned down, and go home with three broken teeth, a gash on the forehead and a changed life. I wanted to feel&#8230;</p>

I was feeling lonely. very lonely. this tidal feeling of yearning, the thing that I cannot define that comes and goes was here again. maybe it had been brought up to the surface by a movie or a song, or whatever, but it was here again. and again. it penetrated my dreams very constantly too, preventing me from sleeping. I had to learn to finally let it go, to grow out of that mood, but I JUST COULDN&#8217;T. I was in the point where drinking didn&#8217;t help anymore, amplifying emotions instead of drowning them. I had no escape route. and then I realized that I didn&#8217;t know if I couldn&#8217;t let go of it because it was really hard or because I was actually sabotaging myself. In reality, I didn&#8217;t know if I really didn&#8217;t want to let it go. I just knew that I had too, and couldn&#8217;t. I was an old dog and his bone, never able to figure it out. so I asked the television for advice: it had none to give. series always had happy endings, but mine was a huge doubt. my writing, at least, was able to become raw again and that was good: the sense of self-satisfaction helped a little, and the ego boost never hurt no one. but I was angry, at the same time. so very angry. why didn&#8217;t he ever call? &#8220;oh, I thought we could be friends.&#8221; yeah, we could be friends if you weren&#8217;t an asshole. you were wrong. just like that. you thought we could be friends, and you were wrong. I thought you were the love of my life, and just as wrong was I&#8230; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230; and I just wanted to lay there all day long, buried underneath the memories, smiling, alone, and maybe even crying  a tiny bit. I wanted to fall asleep in peaceful naps and dream of kisses, waking up to the smell of afternoon coffee and then, later, of dinner. in and out of sleep, like a cat. and I wanted to remember things graciously and have a sore neck from laying down all day long, careless. and I wanted to be able to just enjoy sadness, dressed in that old cut-up shirt that was yours and that is so comfortable, its cotton already paper thin after being worn so many times &#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>não é irônico se acontece de novo e de novo e de novo. é rotina. não é belo por conter tristeza. é apenas triste. é solitário por não ter mais ninguém. ali não há reflexão, não é melancólico. estou apenas só. </p>
<p>e é saudade, mesmo sendo unilateral. mas não é irônico. a ironia aconteceria se o resultado fosse totalmente diferente das expectativas. e aconteceu tudo exatamente como o esperado.</p>
<p>não é como em uma música de Alanis Morissette. ironia seria como disse David Foster Wallace: a canção de um pássaro que aprendeu a amar sua gaiola.</p>
<p>mas não é. estou aqui, presa. me liberte.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>e outro dia passeando pelas ruas, vejo uma campanha que me pergunta se minha cidade me ama. e me pergunto: a cidade a qual pertenço me ama? </p>
<p>me confundo. a pergunta inicial seria, afinal: pertenço a alguma cidade? alguma cidade me pertence? difícil dizer, uma vez que não sou cidadão de cidade alguma. difícil dizer pois mal sou eu cidadão. a cidade que deve me amar&#8230; será aquela onde nasci? pertenço eu a ela? pertence ela a mim? eu, homem de local algum, nascido em um navio, em águas que ninguém possui, longe por muitas e muitas milhas de qualquer sinal de terra.</p>
<p>eu, batizado em sal e sol de convés, empurrado de um útero em meio a fuligem da casa de máquinas. eu, registrado às pressas no cartório mais próximo ao porto de São Tomé e Príncipe, numa repartição apertada que, segundo minha falecida mãe contava, cheirava a suor, esquecimento e peixe.</p>
<p>então, qual é a cidade a qual pertenço? sem raiz de nascimento, seria a cidade que hoje habito? seria o Rio de Janeiro e suas largas avenidas? e suas linhas de metrô escuras, seus prédios espelhados e apáticos? de suas morenas e morenos muy belos?</p>
<p>seria ela minha cidade? que seja então. o lugar para chamar de meu. eu, residindo aqui, sem pai nem mãe nem avó nem semente, por 40 anos, me pergunto então: minha cidade me ama? a resposta é não. olho os bonecos bobos de braços abertos, abraçando um obelisco, e percebo que minha cidade não me ama. </p>
<p>a é cidade maravilhosa, porém tudo que me deu foram socos e pontapés e quilômetros inexoráveis de meios-fio. bares, muitas sarjetas. ingratidão com quem escolheu teu solo, quem te escolheu como tua quando tinha tanta escolha em frente. tudo que esta cidade fez foi ralar-me as palmas das mãos, com bofetes duros, de pai severo, desnortear-me com seu trânsito e poluição, sem a mínima bondade de tentar me permitir existir.</p>
<p>eu abracei estranhos na rua, consolei-os quando choravam. abracei todos os teu filhos, sequei-lhe as lágrimas. nunca fui santo, admito, mas merecia melhor. merecia uma grande mãe que me pusesse no colo, ainda que só às vezes para que eu não ficasse mimado. mas minha cidade nunca me amou. minha cidade jamais me deu nada. nenhum estranho jamais me abraçou de volta. a cidade foi dura, implacável, invencível.</p>
<p>ou talvez tenha sido só a minha vida. </p>
