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

Mr. Sheridan had been an editor for the New York Times for 32 years. He is also a poet, and a father.

POST REPOENITERE
(© Patrícia Evans)


Eles deveriam ter trabalhado menos,
deveriam ter descansado mais,
se preocupado menos,
acreditado mais, orado menos.

Ela deveria ter estado mais na chuva,
ter voltado molhada, úmida,
mais pródiga, menos filha,
ele deveria ter olhado menos,
o dilúvio através da escotilha.
