I KNOW IT'S NOT SO

About Patricia Evans' poetry

"Although I have spent time with Patrícia Evans on three separate occasions, I feel I know Patrícia Evans only through her poetry. She hides nothing, she surrenders everything. It is some of the most powerful poetry I have ever read. And I have read only English translations of her poems, so those who read her in her native Portuguese will experience her even more intimately. They should prepare themselves for imagery, anger, compassion, despair, humor, insight, knowledge of her self and the deepest love for those she loves, especially dad."

Robert E. Sheridan

LÁGRIMA


LÁGRIMA

.
Toma! Guarda o cálice sagrado.
Sorve esta última gota,
que nunca mais um orgasmo
tirado com tua boca.
Guarda este pedaço de mim,
que corta a faca que me encostas;
é o único souvenir,
que restará da esperança morta,
quando eu der as costas a rir
e tu ouvires o bater da porta.
