if you go please let me know, i'll go with a heart on fire

♥

Thirteen thirty-five, Dillon

Somos ainda o limiar - espessa

nuvem embrionária. Verdes,

imaturos crustáceos

emergimos

à superfície grávida

das ondas. Somos

o medo ou sua

improvável renúncia. O que

sabemos do

amor, da morte, é só

difusa,

opaca,

luminosa fábula.

Albano Martins

i stand no chance of growing up

Valentine, Fiona Apple, The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do (2012)

You didn't see my valentine
I sent it via pantomime
While you were watchin' someone else
I stared at you and cut myself

Its all I'll do 'cause I'm not free
A fugitive too dull to flee
I'm amorous but out of reach
A still life drawing of a peach

I'm a tulip in a cup
I stand no chance of growing up
I've made my peace I'm dead I'm done
I watched you live to have my fun

I root for you, I love you. You, you, you, you
I root for you, I love you. You, you, you, you

I root for you, I love you. You, you, you, you

I made it to a dinner date
My tear drops seasoned every plate
I tried to dance but lost my nerve
I cramped up in the learning curve

I'm a tulip in a cup
I stand no chance of growing up
I'm resigned to sail on through
In the wake of tales of you

I root for you, I love you. You, you, you, you.
I root for you, I love you. You, you, you.
I root for you, I love you. You, you, you, you, you, you, you.
I root for you, I love you. You, you, you.

The... the other important joke, for me, is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud's "Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious," and it goes like this - I'm paraphrasing - um, "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member."

That's the key joke of my adult life, in terms of my relationships with women.

Annie Hall (1977), Woody Allen
