O verão já lá vai...

... mas algumas das fotos ainda andam por aqui.

Summer is over...

... but some photos are still here.

E que dizer do concerto de Florence and the Machine? Sem palavras. É que nem sequer vou tentar.

"(...) Raindrops keep falling on my head,

But that doesn't mean

My eyes will soon be turning red

Crying's not for me

Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain

By complaining

Because I'm free,

Nothing's worrying me!

It won't be long,

Till happiness steps up to greet me."

B.J. Thomas "Raindrops keep falling on my head"

Para Castelo Branco eu vou

 

A caminho do Festival Literário de Castelo Branco. Amanhã vou estar na Escola Básica Afonso de Paiva, com o 3º ciclo, na companhia da escritora Maria Manuela Viana. À tarde irei estar na Escola Básica Faria de Vasconcelos, com alunos do 1º e 2º ciclos, na companhia do escritor António Torrado.

O tema base destas conversas é "Escrever é um ato de rebeldia". E é nessse comprimento de onda que irei basear a minha intervenção... Irei provar que desenhar é um ato de grande coragem.

"Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,

Why you never see bright colors on my back,

And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.

Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,

Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,

I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,

But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,

Or listened to the words that Jesus said,

About the road to happiness through love and charity,

Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,

In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,

But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,

Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,

For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,

I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,

Believen' that the Lord was on their side,

I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,

Believen' that we all were on their side.

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,

And things need changin' everywhere you go,

But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,

You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,

And tell the world that everything's OK,

But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,

'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black."

Johnny Cash "Man in Black"

We are the stars who sing,

we sing with our light;

We are the birds of fire,

we fly over the sky.

Our light is a voice...

We make a road for the spirits,

for the spirits to pass over.

Among us are three hunters

who chase a bear.

There never was a time

when they were not hunting.

We look down on the mountains.

This is the song of the stars.
