Downtown people I

Downtown people II

Lonely man at Major Square

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?
-- Beatles, All the Lonely People.

For a friend

Paradise

Set a sail for paradise (Leave in the morning)
Set a sail for paradise
Leave in the morning
We can leave in the morning.
-- Richard Ashcroft, Paradise.

Magic Mirror

A piece of magical realism.

I'm addicted to your charms

I spend little time with you, I want a little more. Your mood, lady, feels like home.

Nirvana

Fly fly fly

São coisas lindas

Vou te contar
Meus olhos já não podem ver
Coisas que só o coração pode entender
Fundamental é mesmo o amor
É impossível ser feliz sozinho

O resto é mar
É tudo que eu não sei contar
São coisas lindas
Que eu tenho pra te dar
Vem de mansinho a brisa e me diz
É impossível ser feliz sozinho

Da primeira vez era a cidade
Da segunda o cais e a eternidade

Agora eu já sei
Da onda que se ergueu do mar
E das estrelas que esquecemos de contar
O amor se deixa surpreender
Enquanto a noite vem nos envolver.
-- Gal Costa cantando a Tom Jobim, Wave. Listen

Fight for peace, 2007

Saturday night

Today she's been working, she's been talking, she's been smoking
It's gonna be alright
Cos tonight we'll go dancing, we'll go laughing, we'll get car sick
And it'll be okay like everyone says, it'll be alright and ever so nice
We're going out tonight, out and about tonight.
-- Suede, Saturday night. Listen

On my way

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
-- Robert Frost, The Road not Taken.

Madness II

"Sickness, insanity and death were the angels that surrounded my cradle and they have followed me throughout my life." -- Edvard Munch. Happy Birthday.

I wish I could be nothing at all

I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy, my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content now a little bit older

The mirror people one day shall be free
I wish I could be nothing at all...
-- Love and Rockets, Mirror People. Listen

About a hat

Or two under november rain.

Absolute pure

These are the days

These are the days that I've been missing
Give me the taste give me the joy of summer wine
These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine.
-- Jamie Cullum, These are the days. Listen

Hollowness

Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats’ feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar.

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion.
-- T.S. Eliot, The Hollow Men

On the road

Taxi driver give me a ride to a place I haven´t been. Your life on the road makes me a passenger of things I haven´t seen.

Natural harmony

The dot and the cloud

Flea markets

Details of South America street sales.

Welcome to my world

Afraid to lose

Colors of life

Red, yellow, blue and green. The colors of life, my favourite colors.

Not everything is quite as it seems

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?

Find yourself afraid to see?

And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
-- Nine Inch Nails, Right Where It Belongs Listen

Coconut water

Though we are ignoring natural world in pro of artificial lifestyle, in some places natural goodness still prevails.

An old car

An old car in the middle of a Field
It seams it's life is well Sealed
That car looks beautiful in it's own Way
Maybe someone will fix it up, and drive it Away
-- David Darbyshire

Seeds of a new hope

Children - a gift of cheer and joy - they bring us a different world.

A day in the city

He says: "You can see the world through my eyes".

Madness

From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were - I have not seen
As others saw - I could not bring
My passions from a common spring -
-- Edgar Allan Poe, Alone

Shades are for real

Please follow me.

Beauty

Vitality, fertility, health, happiness, goodness, and love.

Stand by me

You won't be afraid, if you stand by me.

Behind

Somewhere behind you will find me, there, behind the gap.
