Breviary of Secretions

In a corner of the room, my body
              was operating its factory
                           of relations
Decisions are not self-explanatory,
                       they resist the questionnaire
                of pleasure
                           and they are
      obliged to ignore
                        consequences of causes,
                 such as movement and encounter
Hands cupped are raised
     to the face at the same time
                               that it addresses them
                without them getting lost
                             along the way

Breathing through the mouth, with
                       no time to lose between the
            oxygenation of the brain
                              itself and that of
             the environment
                             generally, he
            spoke loudly and precisely:
                the sudden steepness that runs
                               though the mouthline
                          from the fish to the hand
                           of the fisherman, a hook:
                                                     bait, fish

But this image does not
       find an equivalence
           in my organism and
        once again I look
         at my feet

       Alone and empty
       like one who´s just
       given birth like one
       who´s just ejaculated
       empty and alone

and I only calmed down
       upon repeating duration duration
                                 duration movement

slide the letters under
the door if there are any

Unfortunately I shan´t be able
to go to São Paulo for the
time being but surely
we shall see each other
before you go
hugs and kisses

         in beams of our departing
         in the bams of what awaits us

The progressive emptying
     of the lungs restarting
      right away

There´s no transition more
                     subtle than the one forgotten
            at midnight

and between epidermis
derma muscle
bone all
expect
a gradation
of the spectacles
of the world

turn out the light you nightman I mean knight man

Breviary of secretions
               of the morning:
§ 	a common salivating indeed
    in the midst of
    recent dehydration
§	habitual ejaculation
     before the fasting
§	a normal bleeding
     in the bathroom sink
     colors my mouth
     sensation of freshness and fear
