TUGULÂNDIA – uma cretinocracia

I’D LIKE TO READ

I’d like to read
one of the poems
that drove me into poetry
I can’t remember one line
or where to look

The same thing
happened with money
girls and late evenings of talk

Where are poems
that led me away
from everything I loved

to stand here
naked with the thought of finding thee
