Another tricky one. It brings to mind the overlapping images of the trees along the (now gone) Praia Grande and the forest of masts along the Porto Interior.

passeio o corpo
no casual balanço
da ramagem
remeto
ao cerne
meus olhos
líquidos
de mastros
e navios
dessedentando
o núcleo
das raízes.

my body wanders
under the casual swaying
of branches
i fix
my liquid eyes
on the heartwood
of masts
and ships
quenching the thirst
of the mass
of roots.

Alberto Estima de Oliveira — O Diálogo do Silêncio / The Dialogue of Silence 24
24
das mãos
fluem os sonhos
que a mente
não pode ter
pontos de seda
bordando
a ilusão
de viver.

24
the dreams
that the mind
cannot keep
flow from the hands
silk stitches
embroidering
the illusion
of living.
