jardim

caminhámos juntos sobre as estátuas
(descalços)
contemplámos as árvores nos pedestais
enquanto na alameda os cavalos decapitados
morriam dorsos nus
fomos por momentos grandes feridas abertas
na terra
e rimos animados por um desejo animal
(e no entanto havia como que um pudor em pisar as raízes)
quebrámos a intenção dos solos
com a obstinação da seiva
amámos muscularmente as pedras soerguidas
e as forças como se fossem matéria anatómica
e pecámos mortalmente nas manhãs
quando o orvalho nos encontrava no jardim

Hubble

As the Hubble Space Telescope achieves the major milestone of two decades on orbit, NASA released a stunning new picture.



This brand new Hubble photo is of a small portion of one of the largest known star-birth regions in the galaxy, the Carina Nebula. Towers of cool hydrogen laced with dust rise from the wall of the nebula. The image captures the top of a three-light-year-tall pillar of gas and dust that is being eaten away by the brilliant light from nearby bright stars.

Les philosophes

Le monde n'a pas d'âge. L'humanité se déplace, simplement. Vous êtes en Occident, mais libre d'habiter dans votre Orient, quelque ancien qu'il vous faille, - et d'y habiter bien. Ne soyez pas un vaincu.

(in "une saison en enfer", Jean-Arthur Rimbaud)

A grafiaranha maior

A Grafiaranha vive nos poços de agua limpa rodeada de espelhos diamantíferos que se transformam em pássaros quando são descobertos.

material: time

Some people have a life project. This is it: take something immaterial and lock it in an Euclidean space. Repeat the process every day until it makes sense. Repeat it until infinity becomes bidimensional and you can frame it in your own frame of inhibitions. Repeat it until you're obssessed with the process itself and infinity is just a means and not the goal. It is the process that matters. This is the project. This is the project and it's absurd.
