O poema explora a experiência íntima da ausência,
transformando a falta numa condição existencial. O poema revela uma voz poética
marcada pela solidão, pelo desejo e pela impossibilidade de alcançar plenamente
aquilo que procura. A linguagem, breve e concentrada, cria uma atmosfera de
fragilidade e inquietação, numa experiência profundamente humana e
perturbadora.
Its title intensifies
the impression of emotional pressure, suggesting anxiety, isolation and the
struggle to breathe freely, both physically and metaphorically. The fingers are the ones of the wedding rings. Does it deal with conjugality?
O poema explora a solidão, a fragilidade e a dificuldade de
comunicar uma experiência interior marcada pela angústia. O título, associado
ao blues, sugere uma atmosfera de tristeza, desencanto e vulnerabilidade. A
expressão «cold in hand» transmite uma sensação de vazio e ausência, como se
algo essencial tivesse escapado. O poema revela, assim, uma consciência
inquieta perante a passagem do tempo e a impossibilidade de alcançar plenitude.
It is a charming painting
marked by the artist’s characteristic wit and refined theatricality. The scene
presents a humorous everyday incident, transforming a small mishap into an
elegant visual anecdote. Beneath its playful surface, the painting reveals
Vibert’s talent for capturing social behaviour, irony and the comic side of
ordinary life.
Andava eu sem ter onde cair vivo
Fui procurar abrigo nas frases estudadas do senhor Doutor
Ai de mim, não era nada daquilo que eu queria
Ninguém se compreendia e eu vi que a coisa ia de mal a pior.
Na terra dos sonhos, podes ser quem tu
és, ninguém te leva a mal
Na terra dos sonhos, toda a gente trata a gente toda por igual
Na terra dos sonhos não há pó nas entrelinhas, ninguém se pode enganar
Abre bem os olhos, escuta bem o coração, se é que queres ir para lá morar.
Andava eu sozinho a tremer de frio
Fui procurar calor e ternura nos braços de uma mulher
Mas esqueci-me de lhe dar também um pouco de atenção
E a minha solidão não me largou a mão um minuto sequer.
Se queres ver o mundo inteiro à tua
altura
Tens de olhar p'ra fora sem esquecer que dentro é que é o teu lugar
E se ás duas por três vires que perdeste o balanço
Não penses em descanso, está ao teu alcance e tens de o encontrar.
"A gente já não sabe o que há-de fazer com a lua, gerou-se um
curto-circuito no canal telepático e a caverna clandestina por detrás da
cascata, onde os amantes se entregavam à eternidade, hoje não passa d'um moderno
armazém de sucata." Como pudeste escrever estes versos, assim!? Até amanhã!
O poema valoriza a felicidade em contraste com a tragédia
existencial. A couve irá, um dia, ser cortada. Através de uma linguagem simples,
o sujeito poético parece encontrar alegria nas pequenas coisas, nos momentos
quotidianos e na capacidade de apreciar o presente. A expressão do título
resume uma atitude perante a vida: ser feliz sem procurar justificações
grandiosas.
"A woman and a young
girl stand in the grass, illuminated by a bright, sharp beam of light that
appears to come from the left (as if they are standing in the headlights of a
stationary car). This creates a cinematic tension. Their expressions are serene
yet averted, evoking a sense of anticipation or uncertainty.
Beside them stands a
black dog, gazing alertly into the distance. In art, a dog often symbolizes
loyalty or protection, but here, its dark silhouette also contributes to the
enigmatic and somewhat ominous nature of the scene.
The landscape is
shrouded in deep blue twilight or mist. On the horizon, an industrial facility
or factory is visible, complete with lights and a smokestack.
This contrast between
the vulnerable human figures near the tree and the distant, cold industry highlights
themes of isolation and the transition between nature and urbanization. The
title The title suggests a moment of transition or passage. The bags they are
carrying and their position by the roadside indicate that they are on a
journey, waiting for a moment of departure or change. Wiesenfeld deliberately
avoids presenting a definitive narrative, thereby inviting the viewer to fill
in the details and the emotional resonance of this "silent film
scene" for themselves."
Kasumi, a calligraphy
teacher and aspiring writer, has been grieving the loss of her fiancé for three
years. Unable to move forward, she finds her routine disrupted by the arrival
of a package containing a box of chocolates and a cryptic note. Her journey
through grief becomes a search for meaning in the everyday, exploring how the
past shapes – and sometimes hinders – the present.
O poema convoca a figura do poeta grego como símbolo da
memória, da tradição e da permanência da palavra. Homero representa a
capacidade de transformar experiências humanas em narrativa, preservando
histórias, emoções e valores através dos séculos. A sua presença sugere uma
reflexão sobre a origem da poesia e o poder da linguagem para vencer o
esquecimento.
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to bid him come
in
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to bid him come
in
And he giggled and dribbled all over
his chin
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to give him a
stool
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to give him a
stool
Well, I gave him a stool, and he sat
like a fool
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to give him
some cake
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to give him
some cake
And the silly old fool wriggled just
like a snake
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to pass him the
sugar
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to pass him the
sugar
And he shrivelled and shovelled it
down like a bugger
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to take him to
bed
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to take him to
bed
And the daft old devil nigh stood on
his head
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother told me to show him what to
do
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother told me to show him what to
do
But the silly old cod couldn’t learn
how to screw
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
My mother she told me to bid him
farewell
Aye, but I'll not have him
My mother she told me to bid him
farewell
Well, I bid him farewell and I wished
him in Hell
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
There was an old man came over the
sea
Aye, but I'll not have him
There was an old man came over the
sea
Came snivelling, snuffling, over on
me
With his long grey beard, with his
long grey beard
A‐shivering and shaking.
The song evokes themes
of memory, distance, and the enduring marks left by migration. Its title
suggests a figure shaped by journeys, separation, and experiences carried
across generations. The song’s atmosphere feels reflective, inviting listeners
to consider belonging, identity, and the passage of time. The old man becomes a
symbol of history, resilience, and the emotional weight of distant shores.
Gunnar Widforss’s
Catalina Island (1921) captures the dramatic beauty of the Californian coast
through luminous colours and meticulous detail. Rugged cliffs descend towards
the deep blue Pacific, while vegetation softens the rocky landscape. Widforss’s
precise brushwork and atmospheric sensitivity create a harmonious balance
between geological grandeur and natural serenity. Sunlight illuminates the
terrain, suggesting the clarity of the island’s Mediterranean-like climate.
O poema convida à reflexão sobre a passagem do tempo, a
fragilidade da existência e a memória. A árvore, desprovida de vida aparente,
pode simbolizar a solidão, a perda e o silêncio, mas também a resistência
perante a adversidade. A sua presença na paisagem sugere uma beleza austera,
distante do esplendor natural. A linguagem contida e meditativa valoriza o
pormenor e transforma a imagem da árvore numa metáfora da condição humana,
entre a permanência, a finitude e a esperança.
Merci beaucoup! Guillaume de Machaut, chanoine de la
Cathédrale de Reims, mort en 1377, qui composa l'un des sommets de l'Ars Nova, la Messe Nostre Dame, une merveille.
This painting presents
a lively marketplace filled with bustling activity, merchants, customers, and
an abundance of fish. The painting demonstrates Brueghel’s remarkable attention
to detail, capturing the textures, colours, and movements of everyday
commercial life. Figures gather around market stalls, creating a dynamic sense
of community and trade. Architectural elements and distant scenery provide
depth, while the carefully arranged composition balances numerous individual
scenes. Through its rich visual narrative, the work offers an engaging
portrayal of seventeenth-century Flemish society, combining realism,
observation, and artistic refinement.
O
meu coração desce as escadas do tempo em que não moras
E o
teu encontro
São
planícies e planícies de silêncio
Escura
é a noite
Escura
e transparente
Mas
o teu rosto está para além do tempo opaco
E eu
não habito os jardins do teu silêncio
Porque
tu és de todos os ausentes o ausente
in, "Livro Sexto"
A voz do poema apresenta-se numa atitude de
disponibilidade, presença e procura de verdade. O título, breve e afirmativo,
traduz uma declaração de existência e entrega perante o mundo. A poesia surge
como forma de encontro, revelando a tensão entre a fragilidade humana e o
desejo de plenitude, justiça e harmonia com o universo.
Emily Brontë’s 1844
poem "My Comforter" explores isolation, the agony of human society,
and the inner sanctuary of the creative imagination acting as a guiding voice. The
speaker feels deeply isolated from ordinary people, describing humanity as a
"brotherhood of misery" whose noisy faith and daily despair drive her
into a state of mental torment. The AI melody is silent and hidden in beauty.
