FIRST OF ALL NOTHING WILL HAPPEN

AND A LITTLE LATER

NOTHING WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

A FAMILY WILL PASS BY IN THE NIGHT

SPEAKING OF THE CHILDREN'S BEDTIME

THAT WILL BE THE SIGNAL

FOR YOU TO LIGHT A CIGARETTE.

THEN COMES A DELICATE MOMENT

WHEN THE BACKWOODS MEN

GATHER AROUND THE TABLE

TO DISCUSS *YOUR*  WAY OF LIFE.

DISMISS THEM WITH A GLASS OF

CHERRY JUICE.

YOUR WAY OF LIFE HAS BEEN OVER

FOR MANY YEARS.

[...]

FORTUNATELY, THE SOUND OF CLARINETS

FROM A WANDERING KLEZMER

ENSEMBLE

DRAFTS INTO THE KITCHEN.

ALLOW IT TO DISTRACT YOU 

FROM YOUR CHEERLESS MEDIDATION.

[...]

FOR NO REASON AT ALL

YOU WILL BEGIN TO CRY.

THEN YOUR TEARS WILL DRY UP

AND YOU WILL ACHE FOR A COMPANION.

I WILL BE THAT COMPANION.

AT FIRST, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO US

AND LATER ON 

IT 

WILL 

HAPPEN 

TO 

US

AGAIN.

ENTÃO, NOVAMENTE.  NOVAMENTE TUDO SE NIVELA EM HORIZONTE BAIXO, SEM OS ATAVIOS DO CONDICIONAMENTO ÀS CONDUTAS ALHEIAS.  A GENTE SE PERMITINDO O ESCAPE, E O ESCAPE TRAVESTIDO DE BANDA.  POIS A MINHA BANDA DOS ÚLTIMOS MESES TEÊ SIDO OS QUE  SE DESCUIDAM E ME OLHAM, NO COMBOIO.  E HÁ, ISTO EU JURO, QUEM ME DEVOLVA O SORRISO. INDA QUE EM MAIS DE OITENTA e SETE PORCENTO DAS VEZES EU NÃO O VEJA.
