>> I’ll turn the ocean upside down.


there is a star in the sea


‘there is a star in the sea, and it burns up everything

it touches. Though men who walk on land deny it,

one night a star fell from the sky and landed in the sea.
it had the good sense to become a fish, but the wit

to keep its shape. It sleeps on the bottom of the sea,
but one day I’ll play a trick on it - I’ll turn the ocean

upside down! Then it will shine again, coral bluff,
rusted galleon in the night sky, and I will pray to it.’

pôxa, quando pequena gostava de fazer pipa, ou como é chamada em algumas localidades, pandorga. as minhas eram as simples mesmo, com no máximo duas cores, hehe.
mas, voavam. sempre.
