With a touch of class...

Fotos de objectos. / Objects in photos.

E agora... apetecia-me um café...

Com açúcar... e um toque de classe... aqui fica o link, da minha sugestão musical de hoje... Skeezos - Cafeína.

Volto já!

"puxou o par de chávena de café para si.

retirou o pequeno pacote de açúcar,

de papel, que se encontrava pousado

no pires, rasgou-o num dos topos, quase

completamente, mas com cuidado.

despejou o conteúdo, propositadamente,

no pires e olhou para o seu interior. sorriu.

depositou ali a sua vida. fechou o pacote,

com três pequenas dobras bem vincadas,

sem perder o sorriso, e, sorridente, sorveu

o café. pousou a chávena delicadamente,

fitou a janela com a triunfante expressão

dos felizes e ausentes e assim permaneceu

num o último acto, como se fosse o dono

do tempo; se bastasse a si mesmo; e não mais

necessitasse do mundo. para, assim, o abandonar."

(HENRIQUE CALDEIRA DOS SANTOS, in "o estranho ritual", do blogue Aurorar).

Com um toque de classe... / With a touch of class...

"pulled the cup of coffee for himself.
he took out the small packet of sugar,
from paper, which was lying down
on the saucer, he ripped it on one of the tops, almost
completely, but carefully.
poured the contents, purposely,
on the saucer and looked at it. smiled.
his life was lying there. he closed the packet,
with three small folds well done.
without loosing his smile, and smiling, drank
the coffee. he set the cup down gently,
stared the window with the triumphant expression
from the happy, and absent ones, and so remained
in a final act, as if he was the owner
of time; as if he was self-sufficient; and as if he did not
need the world no more. to thereby abandon it."

(HENRIQUE CALDEIRA DOS SANTOS, in "o estranho ritual", from the blog Aurorar).

And now... I feel like a cup of coffee...

With sugar... and a touch of class... here it stays the link, from my musical suggestion for today... Skeezos - Cafeína. (See the link above, on this post).

I'll be right back!
