Like silent prayers and wedding gifts,
you pour saliva between my teeth, grip my
bones and shake the shine off of the stars.
We gave birth to the moonbows of our summers,
your mouth quivering and I stutter dreams
through chewed-up shoes as we walk through
the wheat fields father planted before his death.
We married at the Roman temple, the world silent,
swallowed by city lights, the buildings gentle
against Évora's breeze, and the stray dogs and cats
gnawing the tail of a long afternoon.
'I do'

His voice.
Our Novel Como preces silentes e presentes de casamento, Derramas saliva nos meus dentes, agarras os meus Ossos e abanas o brilho das estrelas. Demos à luz o luar dos nossos verões, A tua boca tremendo enquanto soluço sonhos Pelos meus sapatos carcomidos e vagueio Pelos campos de trigo que o meu pai plantou antes de morrer. Casámos no Templo Romano, o mundo silente E engolido pelas luzes da cidade, os prédios Gentilmente encostados à brisa de Évora, E os cães e gatos vadios roendo a cauda de uma longa tarde. Aquele 'Sim' ecoou nas nossas línguas; fragmentos De sinos tocando enquanto os nossos maxilares encerram, Compondo a nossa história, o nosso livro de nome E.

 reports, 1d 6m agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
