My garden
is where I plant myself
waiting for nature
to swallow me.

While I wait
my eyes wander
through multiple colours shapes and perfumes
that sew me to the canvas chair
where I sleep.
O meu jardim
é onde me planto
à espera que a natureza
me engula.

Enquanto espero
meus olhos vagueiam
por múltiplas cores formas e perfumes
que me cosem à cadeira de lona
onde dormito.
