Daniel Faria















Daniel Faria all works

I MUST BE THE LAST TIME...

I must be the last time
The final rain over the last animal in the grass
The corpse where the spider decides the circle.
I must be the last step in the stairs of Jacob
And the last dream in it
I must be to it last pain in the hip.
I must be the beggar at my door
And the house post for sale.
I must be the soil that receives me
And the tree that plants me.
In silence and slowly in the dark
I must be the eve. I must be the salt
Looking backwards.
Or the question at the time to leave.


Daniel Faria 1971-1999
In A Explicação das Árvores e de Outros Animais
