A poem by Teresinka Pereira

ALWAYS THE SAME 


From my window I can see
very little. However,
this is my platform from which
I watch the world.
More than anything else
I see the trees covering
the buildings across the street.
I have never met my neighbors
but I know their time
to go and return from work
in colorful brand new cars.
My life is always the same
because that is how I enjoy
security and simplicity.
I see the future as a mystification
of the road we have to pass
in order to go on living.
