The cardboard box hole - O buraco na caixa de papelão (2022)

                The cardboard box hole


   Through a hole on the cardboard box, i saw the web

   Tentacles run from the sky to underground surrounding sea and land

   It had wires like steel

   I saw a huge crowd aligned , following their way

   Sometimes jumping from one to another but definitely over the wire

   People attached  ,  exhausted , stunned but moving

   Following a cadenced-sad flux

   The web had all the possible security

   Shaked on earthquakes but kept "unbreakable"

   It was slippery on rainy days but fully operational

   Then came the sun  , the summer's solstíce 

   Turned everything to dust or fall on the ground (of stones)

   On the fall eyes became wide open and a variable moviment took place

   Vectors rise exponentially , the possibility for bloom and prosper was reached

   Renew was sparkled in every eyes  , fun holds diversity   

   The new begining was printed in alleys and avenues.


   G.S. from : Purple mind 



               O buraco na caixa de papelão 


   Através de um buraco na caixa de papelão, eu vi a rede 

   Suas teias iam do céu ao subsolo, passando por terra e mar 

   Fios robustos pareciam aço 

   Eu vi multidões alinhadas, seguindo 

   As vezes pulando de fio mas definitivamente neles 

   Pessoas  colabadas , exauridas , atordoadas em movimento 

   Conduzidas em um fluxo triste e cadenciado 

   A rede tinha toda segurança possível 

   Balançava em terremotos mas se mantinha indissolúvel 

   Resistia à chuva, ficava escorregadia mas ainda assim operacional 

   Até que chegou o sol, o solstício de verão 

   Fez tudo virar pó ou cair ao chão (de pedras)

   Na queda olhos se abriram e o movimento se fez variável 

   Os vetores cresceram exponencialmente 

   Tudo que pode,  vingou,  floresceu , prosperou 

   A diversão abraçou a diversidade pois em todos os chãos 

   Pedras sustentavam a renovação.

  Chapter 3 – At the point     After  incredible experiences i had yesterday , today my intentions are in order of priority: the São Thomé’s grotto usually called: “a gruta”(the grotto) , another famous tourist spot , a return to the witch’s stone and later a return (at night) to Cruzeiro. Considering that generally the most appropriate time to write is in the morning , today (8/8/23) at 5 am i was already up making breakfast and organizing things to write , my morning departures take place around 10 am . I left around this time towards the São Thomé’s grotto (a gruta) which is nearby, about  25  meters away from the supermarket which is on the other side of the square. I arrived at the grotto , took external photos of the entrance and the plaque with historical information about the grotto and entered. Inside , i saw two chambers , a smaller one on the left probably used for meditation or rituals , it had  a narrow entrance that in my opinion only allows entry while crouching or kneel

  Chapter 5: Mismatch       Today dawned without the intensity of the winds but with a fog that greatly reduced visibility, for example, every day until then I was able to visualize the cruise from my room (approximately 1km) today the visualization was just a fog that despite it was not very dense, it was present even on the streets.          Observing from a different perspective, the fog even gives a more beautiful tone to the city as it hides the transmission towers located at the highest points. I contacted Nelson ● and made myself available for a meeting and as he had commitments in the morning, I organized myself for a morning walk towards the witch's stone. I went once again, along the path that seemed to be a shortcut and avoided the wear and tear of climbing the steep stairs (mentioned in the previous chapter), during the walk I stopped to give and receive affection to 2 groups of dogs that approached when I was passing by. , each group with 2 dogs of different colors but

  Chapter 6 – Atypicalities     My day today started well before dawn , it was around 3 am when i woke up , i really wanted to put on a coat and go to my favorite observation point (the crux – o cruzeiro). The logical mind soon tried to stop this impulse with arguments of all kinds , while having breakfast i went to the window and saw a starry , cloudless sky , i also noticed that there was no wind noise and the visible trees were not moving. I immediately thought about the opportunity to have a better thermal comfort. I put on appropriate clothes and set off through the deserted streets of São Thomé.     As I got closer to the access to go up , i saw 2 pubs still open with people enjoying themselves with relatively loud music. The climb as always , tiring and when i reached the top and prepared to turn off the “flashlight” mode on my cell phone , i saw that it was precisely 3:44 hours , there was no one on the crux and still panting from the climb , i looked for “my place” which offe
