| Catching a picture in a window frame at Miss Pavlova coffeeshop in Porto |
Thinking on a forest...
Dreaming with kittens...
 |
| A kitty that I've seen growing up |
Puzzle with a sudden blur...
Sharing love with a pie while trying to capture a movie.
Lost in 1993 working and working with no gain...
Depeche Mode and Einsturzende Neubauten are in my thoughts...
 |
| Depeche Mode - Devotional Tour - Porto |
 |
| Einsturzende Neubauten at Voz do operário |
Hair being grabbed by my hands...
Soft kisses whispered in a woman's ear...
2016 - Almada's street sunk into a boat where workers use to stand and to be recognized...
Handmade, handjunk, handful of gain.
A coffee spread into the horizon...
Smoking while dreaming...
 |
| Abandoned houses at almada's street in Porto |
1993 - police officers everywhere while a van filled with money is being deposited...
A treasure is hidden in a mere napkin with lips stains on it.
Cocteau Twins are in our hears, hearts and dreams..
A sparrow said this to a tree:
- I need a pie to be free.
- I need a picture of you to jump like a mere flea.
 |
| Cocteau Twins - Treasure |
A kitty stands close to me while we're lost in a Diamanda Galas concert while saying this to thee:
- Are you the divine glory that will carry me into your house while being me?
 |

In 2017, I think in a mere pencil or a rubber and I only write and write, how the bitter juice of lemons were the sweetest thing that could be provided to me.p
 |
| Being the best version of myself |
March 1993 - You're in a street next to me giving me bread while I try to give you words and sympathy.
 |
| A warrior |
April 2017 - We're both lost in a closet, in a mirror, in a shadow while I try to gather info from thee.
(Being hunted by a freak gives me the creeps)
 |
| Not lost in a professional card |
 |
| Essence in my professional card |
1994 - You're within me and I'm into you and I clearly remember that in a sweet September we were shadows on a wall while being lost in a mere hall.
 |
| Filipinha, Cátia and Baltazar at Francelos |
June 2016 - I scent your perfume everywhere and how your clothes and hair used to be.
 |
| A soul trapped in Porto's subway glasses |
March 2017 - I remember a hidden feeling in my heart and soul.
 |
| Ilvie - Heart and soul |
December 1994 - I'm with you into the blue..
November 2016 - I'm not feeling blue, but I search for my youth.

January 2017 - I'm dreaming of you and how you were always on my shoulder, head and back.
 |
| Ilvie reading my books |
November 2016, someone says this to me:
- What do you want to do with your life for a while?
- Are you searching for poems in oblivion?
- Are you trapped while searching for your essence?
I don't have words to reply, so I gaze and try to gather some oxygen while fearing Satan that's behind me.
 |
| Being a bit like José Mourinho |
January 2000
We don't know what to do...
We don't know who are we...
We don't what's that sound that appears out of a sudden.

I listen live to Explosions in the sky without My Bloody Valentine, my body is in limbo while I only think in a morning bell without pictures.

I'm still at Miss Pavlova coffeeshop searching for Michaela Pavlatova animations.

- Every breath you take we're watching you...

I don't answer and I'm certain that I'm like Winston's character in George Orwell's novel "1984" and I smoke a cigarette that comes from a brand with his name.
