MINHA ALMA CANTA...O que tem a ver Aretha Franklin com Carlos Drummond de Andrade??? Tudo, se eu quiser. Tudo, nessa noite lânguida e calorenta. E cheia de desejos. Mas chega de blog por hoje, chega. Fecho com o poema que acabei de ler, pensando em você.
Coração numeroso
C.D.A.
Foi no Rio.
Eu passava na Avenida quase meia-noite.
Bicos de seio batiam nos bicos de luz estrelas inumeráveis.
Havia a promessa do mar
e bondes tilintavam,
abafando o calor
que soprava no vento
e o vento vinha de Minas.
Meus paralíticos sonhos desgosto de viver
(a vida para mim é vontade de morrer)
faziam de mim homem-realejo imperturbavelmente
na Galeria Cruzeiro quente quente
e como não conhecia ninguém a não ser o doce vento mineiro,
nenhuma vontade de beber, eu disse: Acabemos com isso.
Mas tremia na cidade uma fascinação casas compridas
autos abertos correndo caminho do mar
voluptuosidade da vida aos homens diferentes,
que meu coração bateu forte, meus olhos inúteis choraram.
O mar batia em meu peito, já não batia no cais.
A rua acabou, quede as árvores? a cidade sou eu
a cidade sou eu
sou eu a cidade
meu amor.
1930

"...[R]eturning to the Red Drum for sets, to hear Bird, whom I saw distinctly digging Mardou several times also myself directly into my eye looking to search if I was really the great writer I thought myself to be as if he knew my thoughts and ambitions or remembered me from other night clubs and other coasts, other Chicagos--not a challenging look but the king and founder of the bop generation at least the sound of it in digging his audience digging his eyes, the secret eyes him-watching, as he just pursed his lips and let great lungs and immortal fingers work, his eyes separate and interested and humane, the kindest jazz musician there could be while being and therefore naturally the greatest--watching Mardou and me in the infancy of our love and probably wondering why, or knowing it wouldn't last, or seeing who it was would be hurt, as now, obviously, but not quite yet, it was Mardou whose eyes were shining in my direction, though I could not have known and now do not definitely know--except the one fact, on the way home, the session over the beer in the Mask drunk we went home on the Third Street bus sadly through night and throb knock neons and when I suddenly leaned over her to shout something further (in her secret self as later confessed) her heart leapt to smell the "sweetness of my breath" (quote) and suddenly she almost loved me--"
