“Aflição de ser eu e não ser outra.
Aflição de não ser, amor, aquela
Que muitas filhas te deu, casou donzela
E à noite se prepara e se adivinha
Objeto de amor, atenta e bela.
Aflição de não ser a grande ilha
Que te retém e não te desespera.
(A noite como fera se avizinha)
Aflição de ser água em meio à terra
E ter a face conturbada e móvel.
E a um só tempo múltipla e imóvel
Não saber se se ausenta ou se te espera.
Aflição de te amar, se te comove.
E sendo água, amor, querer ser terra.”
― Da Poesia

“If she wants him sexually he names her slut; if she does not want him he rapes her and says she does; if she would rather study or paint he names her repressed and brags he can cure her pathological interests with the apocryphal “good fuck.”
