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.

MEU SILÊNCIO / MY SILENCE

MEU SILÊNCIO
( © Patrícia Evans)
.
O frio de cio que no fim se acabara,
me silencia
e, quando silencio
é frio de fria invernada,
gélido frio, que vem com geada.

Meu silêncio, vigia!
ou hipotermia.

MY SILENCE
( © Patrícia Evans)

The cold brought by lovers' ended heat
has been silencing me
and my silencing,
it's wintering cold,
icy cold that comes with frost.

If I am silent, watch...
or hypothermia!
