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.

AS EXPECTED / CONFORME ESPERADO




AS EXPECTED

Life, then, was overrun with walk-ins. 
Reality kept coming 
without having an appointment, 
and,
as expected, 
insanity moved in.

 A vida, então, estava cheia. 
A realidade insistia em vir sem avisar
e, 
conforme esperado, 
a insanidade se aconchegou.
