A primeira vez que entendi (Affonso Romano de Sant' Anna)

A primeira vez que entendi do mundo
alguma coisa
foi quando na infância
cortei o rabo de uma lagartixa
e ele continuou se mexendo.

De lá pra cá
fui percebendo que as coisas permanecem
vivas e tortas
que o amor não acaba assim
que é difícil extirpar o mal pela raiz.

A segunda vez que entendi do mundo
alguma coisa
foi quando na adolescência me arrancaram
do lado esquerdo três certezas
e eu tive que seguir em frente.

De lá pra cá
aprendi a achar no escuro o rumo
e sou capaz de decifrar mensagens
seja nas nuvens
ou no grafite de qualquer muro.

Affonso Romano de Sant'Anna
