Iguatemi-Hugh Fox

(Don't worry, translation follows the Portugeuse)

Um senhor que não conhecemos aparece, nós

tomando cafe e casadinho (chocolate e leite
doce solido) em frente de Ponto Frio (lojia de
televisão) e Cavalira (ropa masculina fina, fina,
fina) ele para, “Tudo bem?,” “ Tudo bem,”
“Voce é...?,” “Jesus Criso,” olhando a suas
mãos, nada de cicatrizes, “Nada de cicarizes
nas mãos?,” “Tudo curado fazem milhares de
anos...e o tempo nas não conta!,” “E para nós?,”
a voz muda para mim todo o shopping “Meu
pai, eu e o meu irmão fizemos tudo, mais voces
melhoram tudo tanto , nunca vi tanto luxo, eu o
Jardim de Eden ao lado de seu mundo computorizado,
nem su, meu pai ou irmão fizemos nada tão
milagroso, e a comida daqui e, possivilene, é
tempo de casar-me com uma mulher dessas com
pernas de espadas, tetas devacas, olhos de buracos
pretos entre as estrelas...començar não de novo mas
tudo construido sobre a realidade daqui...,” de
repente nos manda um beijo e desaparece, um
momento na tela da televisão (Sansung) na janela
                       de Ponto Frio
                       e


                     A                Deus

 
 
 
A man who we don’t know appears, we’re

having coffee and casadinhos (chocolate with
solid sweet milk), in front of Ponto Frio (a
TV store) and Cavalira (fine, fine, fine men’s
clothes), he stops “Everything OK? “Everything
OK,” “You are?” “Jesus Christ,” looking at his
hands, no scars, “No scars on the hands?,” “everything
healed thousands of years ago...and time doesn’t
count for me!,” “And for us?,” “The mute voice
fills the whole mall, “My father, me and my brother
created everything, but you people improved everything
so much, I never saw such luxury, me and the Garden
of Eden next to your computerized world, neither I
or my father or my phantom brother ever made anything
so miraculous, and the food here, I’m going to
reincarnate myself in order to eat the sweets here, and
its positively time to marry a woman with those sword
legs, cow breasts, eyes of black holes among the stars...
begin again but everything based on the reality here...,”
and suddenly he throws us a kiss and disappears, a
moment on the TV screen (Samsung) in the window
                     of Ponto Frio
                     and


                  God               bye
