"Feito Pra Acabar", Zé Miguel Wisnik 


                                                             Quem me diz
                                                             Da estrada que não cabe onde termina
                                                             Da luz que cega quando te ilumina
                                                             Da pergunta que emudece o coração

                                                             Quantas são
                                                             As dores e alegrias de uma vida
                                                             Jogadas na explosão de tantas vidas
                                                             Vezes tudo que não cabe no querer

                                                             Vai saber
                                                             Se olhando bem no rosto do impossível
                                                             O véu, o vento o alvo invisível
                                                             Se desvenda o que nos une ainda assim

                                                             A gente é feito pra acabar

                                                             A gente é feito pra dizer
                                                             Que sim
                                                             A gente é feito pra caber
                                                             No mar
                                                             E isso nunca vai ter fim

Elias


He cried out to the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, will You bring calamity upon this widow whose guest I am, and let her son die?" Then he stretched out over the child three times, and cried out to the LORD, saying, "O LORD my God, let this child's life return to his body!" The LORD heard Elijah's plea; the child's life returned to his body, and he revived. Elijah picked up the child and brought him down from the upper room into the main room, and gave him to his mother. "See," said Elijah, "your son is alive." And the woman answered Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the LORD is truly in your mouth."

 L'Chayim


Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

The Second Coming, Yeats
