Emily Dickinson

1705

Volcanoes be in Sicily
And South America
I judge from my Geography—
Volcanos nearer here
A Lava step at any time
Am I inclined to climb—
A Crater I may contemplate
Vesuvius at Home.

Save a prayer - Duran Duran

You saw me standing by the wall
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain't much fun
So you're looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to go
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
Feel the breeze deep on the inside
Look you down into the well
If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance
Like all dreamers can't find another way
You don't have to dream it all, just live a day
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Pretty looking road
I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Don't ask me why I'll keep my promise
I'll melt the ice
And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul
Some people call it a one night stand
But we can call it paradise
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save a prayer 'til the morning after

#UmaPoesiaPorDia - I like My Body When It Is With Your

I Like My Body When It Is With Your

E.E. Cummings

i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body.  i like what it does,
i like its hows.  i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones,and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like, slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz
of your electric furr,and what-is-it comes
over parting flesh….And eyes big love-crumbs,

and possibly i like the thrill


of under me you so quite new

#UmaPoesiaPorDia - O Cão Sem Plumas

O Cão Sem Plumas
(João Cabral de Melo Neto)

A cidade é passada pelo rio
como uma rua
é passada por um cachorro;
uma fruta
por uma espada.

O rio ora lembrava
a língua mansa de um cão
ora o ventre triste de um cão,
ora o outro rio
de aquoso pano sujo
dos olhos de um cão.

Aquele rio
era como um cão sem plumas.
Nada sabia da chuva azul,
da fonte cor-de-rosa,
da água do copo de água,
da água de cântaro,
dos peixes de água,
da brisa na água.

Sabia dos caranguejos
de lodo e ferrugem.

Sabia da lama
como de uma mucosa.
Devia saber dos povos.
Sabia seguramente
da mulher febril que habita as ostras.

Aquele rio
jamais se abre aos peixes,
ao brilho,
à inquietação de faca
que há nos peixes.
Jamais se abre em peixes.

#UmaPoesiaPorDia: Conversation - Elizabeth Bishop

Conversation

The tumult in the heart keeps asking questions. 
And then it stops and undertakes to answer 
in the same tone of voice. 
No one could tell the difference. 
Uninnocent, these conversations start,

 and then engage the senses, 
only half-meaning to.
 And then there is no choice, 
and then there is no sense; 
until a name 
and all its connotation are the same.
 Elizabeth Bishop

By My Side
INXS

In the dark of the night
Those small hours
Uncertain and anxious
I need to call you

Rooms full of strangers
Some call me friend
But I wish you were so close to me

In the dark of night
Those small hours
I drift away
When I'm with you

In the dark of night
By my side
In the dark of night
By my side
I wish you were (2x)

Here comes the clown
His face in a wall
No window
No air at all

In the dark of night
Those faces they haunt me
But I wish you were
So close to me

(2x)
In the dark of night
By my side
In the dark of night
By my side
I wish you were (2x)

In the dark of night
Those faces they haunt me
And I wish you were so close to me

Yes I wish you were

By my side

Neneh Cherry

Kootchi Koo

I love the way you walk
I love the way you talk
With your mouthful
The way you park on the sidewalk
The way you are in your car

I’ll make you love the way I behave
On my bad days
Show you the trigger to my bitch switch
And how to play with my witch stitch

Kiss my dirty feet
I’ll take you out for dinner
Laugh at my jokes
I wanna sit on your back
Close my eyes
Take your pulse
It’s 120...ohh yeah
And it’s rising

All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you (4X)

I love the way you rob a shop
I love the way your belly flops
As the morning drops
And the way you change from playing cup
When you force me to stop
First my assailant
Then my private federal agent
Bang my feet chain my hands
And ignore my demands

Kiss my dirty feet
I’ll take you out for dinner
Laugh at my jokes ahah
I wanna sit on your back
Close my eyes
Take your pulse
It’s 120
(ahhhhh) and it’s rising (ahhhh)

All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you now
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you oh
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you yeah
All I wanna do, is kootchi kootchi kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you oh
All I wanna do, is kootchi kootchi kootchi kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you now

You’re like maggots in my brain
Crawling through my veins

All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you
All I wanna do, is kootchi koo with you
Kootchi (9X) 
koo.

Wildest Moments - Jesse Ware

Wildest Moments - Jesse Ware
You and I, bloodlines
We come together every time
Two wrongs, no rights
We lose ourselves at night
From the outside, from the outside
Everyone must be wondering why we try
Why do we try
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all
Wait on, thunder sky
Wherever there’s smoke, there'll soon be fire
What could bring bad luck
I’ve been looking at you too much
From the outside,
From the outside
Everyone must be wondering why we try
Why do we try
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all
In the middle of it
We walk, we walk the line
Looking back on the set
Our wildest moments
Are you thinking what if
What if we ruined it all?
My wrecking ball
From the outside, from the outside
Everyone must be wondering why we try
Why do we try
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the greatest,
We could be the greatest
Maybe in our wildest moments
We could be the worst of all

Changes - David Bowie






Changes
David Bowie

Oh Yeah
Ooo

Still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I've never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I'm much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't wanna be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time

Ooo yeah
I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Where's your shame
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can't trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Ah Changes are taking the pace I'm going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-Changes
Pretty soon now you're gonna get older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can't trace time

Do not forget!

Vai Passar


Vai Passar
Chico Buarque

Vai passar nessa avenida um samba popular
Cada paralelepípedo da velha cidade essa noite vai se arrepiar
Ao lembrar que aqui passaram sambas imortais
Que aqui sangraram pelos nossos pés
Que aqui sambaram nossos ancestrais
Num tempo página infeliz da nossa história,
passagem desbotada na memória
Das nossas novas gerações
Dormia a nossa pátria mãe tão distraída
sem perceber que era subtraída
Em tenebrosas transações
Seus filhos erravam cegos pelo continente,
levavam pedras feito penitentes
Erguendo estranhas catedrais
E um dia, afinal, tinham o direito a uma alegria fugaz
Uma ofegante epidemia que se chamava carnaval,
o carnaval, o carnaval
Vai passar, palmas pra ala dos barões famintos
O bloco dos napoleões retintos
e os pigmeus do boulevard
Meu Deus, vem olhar, vem ver de perto uma cidade a cantar
A evolução da liberdade até o dia clarear
Ai que vida boa, ô lerê,
ai que vida boa, ô lará
O estandarte do sanatório geral vai passar
Ai que vida boa, ô lerê,
ai que vida boa, ô lará
O estandarte do sanatório geral... vai passar

Samba e Amor



Samba e Amor
Chico Buarque


Eu faço samba e amor até mais tarde
E tenho muito sono de manhã
Escuto a correria da cidade que arde
E apressa o dia de amanhã
De madrugada a gente 'inda se ama
E a fábrica começa a buzinar
O trânsito contorna, a nossa cama reclama
Do nosso eterno espreguiçar
No colo da bem vinda companheira
No corpo do bendito violão


Eu faço samba e amor a noite inteira
Não tenho a quem prestar satisfação


Eu faço samba e amor até mais tarde
E tenho muito mais o que fazer
Escuto a correria da cidade. Que alarde!
Será que é tão difícil amanhecer?
Não sei se preguiçoso ou se covarde
Debaixo do meu cobertor de lã


Eu faço samba e amor até mais tarde
E tenho muito sono de manhã.

Feliz Dia das Mães!


Para Sempre

Carlos Drummond Andrade

Por que Deus permite
que as mães vão-se embora?
Mãe não tem limite,
é tempo sem hora,
luz que não apaga
quando sopra o vento
e chuva desaba,
veludo escondido
na pele enrugada,
água pura, ar puro,
puro pensamento.
Morrer acontece
com o que é breve e passa
sem deixar vestígio.
Mãe, na sua graça,
é eternidade.
Por que Deus se lembra
- mistério profundo -
de tirá-la um dia?
Fosse eu Rei do Mundo,
baixava uma lei:
Mãe não morre nunca,
mãe ficará sempre
junto de seu filho
e ele, velho embora,
será pequenino
feito grão de milho.

Maya Angelou

I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS

A free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream till the current ends
and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage
can seldom see through his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.

Radiohead - High and Dry

 High and Dry - Radiohead

Two jumps in a week, I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy
Flyin' on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition, kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror, you're turning into something you are not

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Drying up in conversation, you will be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you when you think you've got the world
all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit at you, you will be the one screaming out

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Oh, it's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing that you've ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you've ever had
The best thing you've had has gone away

So don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry

Olivia Newton John

Hopelessly Devoted To You

Guess mine is not the first heart broken,
my eyes are not the first to cry I'm not the first to know,
there's just no gettin' over you
Hello, I'm just a fool who's willing to sit around
and wait for you
But baby can't you see, there's nothin' else
for me to do I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide,
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head,
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you,
hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying "fool, forget him",
my heart is saying "don't let go"
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide,
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head,
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you,
hopelessly devoted to you

Quotes From When Luke and Lorelai Share Their First Kiss



Luke: I'm not a mysterious man, am I?

Lorelai: Well, the wardrobe's a bit of a head scratcher.

Luke: You know the last time I bought someone flowers? Never! That's when! Very easy stat to remember!

Lorelai: I loved the flowers!

Luke: And when I walked you home after the wedding, there was a moment. I thought there was a moment.

Lorelai: There was! There was a moment.

(Luke gazes at Lorelai, then moves closer)

Lorelai: What are you doing?

Luke: Will you just stand still?

(He gathers her in his arms and they kiss. Lorelai pulls away, then moves back closer to Luke.)

Luke: What are you doing?

Lorelai: Will you just stand still?

(She holds his face as she kisses him, Luke's arms wrap around her as they kiss. She pulls away again. As they gaze at each other, Luke grasps her waist and pulls her back.)

#CazuzaDay

Faz Parte Do Meu Show

Cazuza

Composição : Cazuza / Renato Ladeira
Te pego na escola e encho a tua bola com todo o meu amor
Te levo pra festa e testo o teu sexo com ar de professor
Faço promessas malucas tão curtas quanto um sonho bom
Se eu te escondo a verdade, baby, é pra te proteger da solidão
Faz parte do meu show
Faz parte do meu show, meu amor
Confundo as tuas coxas com as de outras moças
Te mostro toda a dor
Te faço um filho
Te dou outra vida pra te mostrar quem sou
Vago na lua deserta das pedras do Arpoador
Digo 'alô' ao inimigo
Encontro um abrigo no peito do meu traidor
Faz parte do meu show
Faz parte do meu show, meu amor
Invento desculpas, provoco uma briga, digo que não estou
Vivo num 'clip' sem nexo
Um pierrot retrocesso
meio bossa nova e 'rock'n roll'
Faz parte do meu show
Faz parte do meu show, meu amor
Meu amor, meu amor, meu amor...
