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

Ora, ora,
Quebra o vidro o punho cerrado
pela dança que te há negado
ela! tez de nuanças douradas
(a lua 'inda se diz roubada)
Sangram em jorro teus dedos-pregos
rasgados em fio de punhal cego
por teu indigente cérebro afiado
Teus pulsos terão cicatrizes
e nada terá adiantado
teu arroubo _ desatino
Ela passará incólume ao teu destino
tu sofrerás inócuo às suas matizes
enquanto o vidro jaz eterno espatifado.
