Illusory Visions
:
they say that all places are the same:
the drought the sertao is on the face of an old grandfather
spring on the butterfly's wing
all snow is kilimanjaro,
every tower is Eiffel, every fog is london
all heat is volcano,
all rain comes in mars
and comes from Rio de Janeiro,
all light is Paris
all the world is the same
live the same way,
dying is the same...
if life is like this
I don't know what exists is
must be just story
because most things
I didn't live...
so it can't be all the same
everywhere... !
