and you might miss it
everything changes so fast
sometimes a rock needs
to hit the bottom
for it to erupt as new
and adapt to anything
be like water
•
like getting used to
11 hour flights
over our favourite pond
Atlântico
I will continue crossing this one
until I can fully comprehend
the size of the Pacific ocean
every map has it cut into two
how am I supposed to know?
•
white as a ghost
from snowy Estonia
I landed in São Paulo
hot like a fever and so green
I had not seen the sun
in at least two weeks
it would solve all our issues
why isn’t any party
promising more sunshine? (go vote)
•
I came for the pineapples
that were out of season
the avocados from the trees
that were too big
the Atlantic ocean
so cold and moody
stealing glasses and swimwear
these are not complaints
the culture is different
the only thing
I actually did mind
was crossing the street
arguing with an Uber driver
that you should stop
if a human is walking on the part
where the stripes are drawn
a lot of places
aren’t safe for walking anyway
that is beside the point
•
the same applies
for the post you’re reading
it is a teaser trailer
for feature poems
of my 2 weeks
turned into 6 weeks
in the country of the future
and all-year watermelon
✨Brazil✨
I promise:
this will actually be continued
