“First of all, I’m not an intellectual of any sort that I know. I’ve many friends who are intellectuals and whatever that word means exactly but…a primitive, yes, because I didn’t know a damn thing about poetry. Nothing. I’d never gone to college. I absolutely was a flunk-out in any schooling I had. I laughed my way through exams. They just kinda passed me on…but nothing came through. I don’t know the multiplication table, can’t spell, can’t punctuate and…until I started at 27, hadn’t done much reading. Oh yes, well of course, some but not not…and certainly not in poetry. One would say a primitive.” -Anne Sexton, in an interview

Pour ma chère dame
Mudez
Em frente à minha imagem
Que nada representa ou diz por si mesma;
Dada a sua fragilidade
Não a abandono
A alinho em duas ocasiões;
Permanente e distante
Do distanciamento nasce uma lágrima
Aquela que escreve "Dálias" em seu rosto
Dada a sua franqueza
Da permanência encontro complicação
Surdez
Em frente à minha voz
Que aflora e morre em seu próprio conto.

Soie
Me encontro de novo
Roendo um naco de cetim
Espreitando-a por pouquíssima, a fio
Um gênero morto, uma lembrança também morta
Sinto-a pesando sobre a cama
O rilhar da madeira
A sublinhar minha feição, inquieta
Um emaranhado de linho
Desdenhando-a
Esquivando-se de sua nota
A crista do arco, tomando-a de relance
Sob toda a profundidade
Respirando constrangida
Acompanhando os golfos que por fim me sufocam
O que quer queeu peça
Ou pense, não.
