FUGINDO
NUMA TELA DE VAN GOGH

(André L. Soares)

.

Cansado das vãs teorias,

busco a letargia

dos alienados felizes.

Não quero saber da política,

viro as costas ao feio

e à hipocrisia.

Entrego-me à incoerência;...

só vou ouvir os pássaros

e apreciar as orquídeas!

Chega de tantas mentiras,

da esperança perdida

da pesada leitura.

Fico à margem dos dias,

da falsa engrenagem

das tristes notícias.

Cedo-me à ignorância;...

só vou ouvir os pássaros

e apreciar as orquídeas!

Farto das ideologias,

dos beijos de Judas,

das falas prolixas.

Renego as tramas noturnas,

as turvas matizes

e as falácias da vida.

Rendo-me à intolerância;...

só vou ouvir os pássaros

e apreciar as orquídeas!
