Dear Natália,
Just to tell you that...of all the things I have lost in my life, my mind is the one I miss the most.
XOXO, Andy

Já que até o Dengoso conseguiu perder a coleirinha de borboletinha com guizo...e se fóssemos juntar tudo que já perdemos na vida não caberia num caminhão de mudança...Vamos pelo menos fazer como o Dengoso...perder com classe, fezendo cara de "não é comigo", comer coisas gostosas e dormir com veemência!

"One Art", by Elizabeth Bishop

The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster.

Lose something every day. Accept the fluster
of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.

Then practice losing farther, losing faster:
places, and names, and where it was you meant
to travel. None of these will bring disaster.

I lost my mother's watch. And look! my last, or
next-to-last, of three loved houses went.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.

I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster,
some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.

---Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture
I love) I shan't have lied. It's evident
the art of losing's not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.

-- Elizabeth Bishop
Differently than Miss. Bishop..."I do not want to lose you..." XOXO, Andy.
Ps: Eu tenho o Complete Works da Bishop em alguma estante...em alguma prateleira... Verdade! Eu tenho! Ou será que eu o emprestei e... now it is gone! Lost forever...Pardone moi...vai ficar sem a referência bibliográfica. Eu adoraria perder as normas da ABNT também.

Essa música do Pixies...com o Placebo...será a nossa música tema desse ano. Acabei de descobrir que existem "Pessoas Placebo"...aquelas que pensamos ser verdadeiras mas são apenas uma cápsula de açúcar; funcionam momentaneamente apenas pelo nosso poder de sugestão. Our minds play lots of tricks.
