E como me
faltam.
João Rui
The waterfront [17.04.2012 Bremen – Germany] Near the pier of Bremen there are
boats who know the weight of the absence of the sea: where birds hanging on the
masts deliver their feathers to the wind: oscillating like reminders of fire
and disappearing every time one of my steps follows another. There is also
promise of departure. It is always by the waterfront that I remember of the ones
that departed not out of love for the sea, but out of spite from the earth. It
is always by the waterfront that I remember of the departed. Of those who left and
of whom I can never depart. And how they are sorely missed. João Rui
