Fear of seeing a police car pull into the drive.
Fear of falling asleep at night.
Fear of not falling asleep.
Fear of the past rising up.
Fear of the present taking flight.
Fear of the telephone that rings in the dead of night.
Fear of electrical storms.
Fear of the cleaning woman who has a spot on her cheek!
Fear of dogs I've been told won't bite.
Fear of anxiety!
Fear of having to identify the body of a dead friend.
Fear of running out of money.
Fear of having too much, though people will not believe this.
Fear of psychological profiles.
Fear of being late and fear of arriving before anyone else.
Fear of my children's handwriting on envelopes.
Fear they'll die before I do, and I'll feel guilty.
Fear of having to live with my mother in her old age, and mine.
Fear of confusion.
Fear this day will end on an unhappy note.
Fear of waking up to find you gone.
Fear of not loving and fear of not loving enough.
Fear that what I love will prove lethal to those I love.
Fear of death.
Fear of living too long.
Fear of death.
          I've said that.

arsenii tarkovskii

Pela noite concedias-me o favor,
Abriram-se as portas do altar
E a nossa nudez iluminava o escuro
À medida que genuflectia. E ao acordar
Eu diria "Abençoada sejas!"
Sabendo como pretensiosa era a benção:
Dormias, os lilases tombavam da mesa
Para tocar-te as pálpebras num universo de azul,
E tu recebias esse sinal sobre as pálpebras
Imóveis, e imóvel estava a tua mão quente.

poemas com cinema II

Psycho

Assaninada no duche 
como Marat
mas sem revolução 
nem razão
é o sangue aguado dela
vai-se pelo ralo
da banheira
no sentido
dos ponteiros do relógio 
nos antípodas 
seria ao contrário 
porquê?

poemas com cinema I

Duas infâncias passaram
por mim: uma, no planetário,
com os espanto dos astros

Outra, com Sal Mineo,
que no seu mundo ansioso
vislumbrou a eternidade
