Outra vez

Devem-se de perguntar...a quem visita este "sitio" ocasionalmente ou afins!!! Porque raio o gajo tem sempre letras ou musicas em vez de outra coisa....
Bem, se aquilo que ouço ou vejo materializa o meu estado emotivo e já está escrito e/ou filmado, então, porque não prestar uma homenagem a esse(s) que já o sentiram.

Eis então o sentimento desta(s) noite(s):

I heard of a man
who says words so beautifully
that if he only speaks their name
women give themselves to him.

If I am dumb beside your body
while silence blossoms like tumors on our lips.
it is because I hear a man climb stairs and clear his throat outside the door.

(Leonard Cohen)

Well with buck shot eyes and a purple heart
I rolled down the national stroll
and with a big fat paycheck
strapped to my hip sack
and a shore leave wristwatch underneath
my sleeve
in a Hong Kong drizzle on Cuban heels
I rowed down the gutter to the Blood Bank
and I'd left all my papers on the Ticonderoga
and was in a bad need of a shave
and so I slopped at the corner on cold chow mein
and shot billards with a midget
until the rain stopped
and I bought a long sleeved shirt
with horses on the front
and some gum and a lighter and a knife
and a new deck of cards (with girls on the back)
and I sat down and wrote a letter to my wife

and I said Baby, I'm so far away from home
and I miss my Baby so
I can't make it by myself
I love you so

Well I was pacing myself
trying to make it all last
squeezing all the life
out of a lousy two day pass
and I had a cold one at the Dragon
with some Filipino floor show
and talked baseball with a lieutenant
over a Singapore sling
and I wondered how the same moon outside
over this Chinatown fair
could look down on Illinois
and find you there
and you know I love you Baby

and I'm so far away from home
and I miss my Baby so
I can't make it by myself
I love you so

Shore Leave...
Shore Leave...

(Tom Waits)

O melhor mesmo....É OUVIR A MÚSICA.
Fiquem bem.

Recomecei um livro abandonado no Verão, ainda não sei porquê, pois é delicioso!!!
Chama-se "Já Não Me Lembrava" (Os Delírios da K e outros textos)
A K foi uma revista de mentes delirantes como Rui Zink ou o MEC durante a década de 90.

Partilho aqui algumas Traduções Selvagens (p.21)

CURRICULUM VITAE - diarreia
Ex: 1: « Estás pálido. Estás outra vez com curriculum vitae?»
Ex. 2: « Não há papel que chegue para o curriculum vitae do Dr. Mota!»

ECCE HOMO - é bicha.
Ex.1: «Ele é um gajo porreiro mas ecce homo.»
Ex.2: « Porque é que não tens filhos? O teu marido é ecce homo?»

GROSSO MODO - de forma a proporcionar uma erecção estupenda.
Ex.: «Estás a comer esse Corneto grosso modo.»

HABEAS CORPUS - tens cá um cabedal.
Ex.: «Fica-te bem essa t-shirt...não sabia que habeas corpus.»

SUPERAVIT - muito depressa.
Ex.: « Antes de sair de casa, dei-lhe uma superavit.»

SUUM CUIQUE - sofro de ejaculação precoce.
Ex.: «Se gostas dela superavit tens sorte porque suum cuique.»

DURA LEX SED LEX - os bons preservativos são sedosos.
Ex.: «Nem reparaste que estava com a camisa vestida...sabes que dura lex sed lex.»

IN ILLO TEMPORE - nos cornos.
Ex.: «O gajo estava a chatear-me e eu enfiei-lhe um murro in illo tempore»

LAPSUS LINGUAE - falta o linguado.
Ex.1: « Olhe, se faz favor, vieram os strogonoffs, mas lapsus linguae.»
Ex.2: « Esses beijinhos na bochecha não me dizem nada. Para grosso modo, lapsus linguae. Ou ecce homo?»

IN LOCO - passou-se.
Ex.1: « Quando entrei no bar com a namorada dele, ele in loco in illo tempore.»
Ex.2: « Ele era um garanhão mas in loco e agora ecce homo.»

Acho que já ficaram com a ideia.

The revolution will not be televised

Parece vinda direitinha de qualquer filme do Tarantino, mas esta "musiquinha" tem pairado na minha cabeça desde à uns bons anos.
Recentemente, regressou, e, como o mesmo livro que se lê em diferentes idades...o significado é sempre melhor, diferente e mais sensato.

Por isso, a todos os:

50 cent e todos os demais cacofonos sedentos de $...

"putos" brancos que acham que são pretos...

...e tudo o demais que envolve esta "coisada" toda em redor do "bling" ou do "respect" e afins...

you can kiss my white pt ass... basta-me o Gil e mais uns deles.
