Dias Nublados, e Museus sem Charme

junho 21st, 2007 | by Aldrin Leal |

Ouvindo Satchmo e Ella, “A Foggy Day”:

I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do, what to do, what to do
The outlook was decidedly blue

But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day I’ve known

A foggy day, in london town
Had me low, had me down
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
British museum, had lost it’s charm

How long I wondered,
Could this thing last
But the age of miracles, hadn’t past
For suddenly, I saw you there

And through foggy london town,
The sun was shining everywhere
For suddenly, I saw you there
And through foggy london town,
The sun was shining everywhere

Everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere

Era importante ter tocado esta música, enquanto estava perdido em memórias. Sou o que me tornei, mas, afinal, qual o sentido? Do que fiz de mim, pergunto? E eis que surge a música e enfim, decido ler com calma a letra.

O que concluo? Nada, exceto que o clima da música me pede um Capuccino as 6 da manhã, numa Belém que acorda, enquanto vejo as notícias tomando o Capuccino no Líder Batista Campos. Isto sim, é algo que, por mais urbano que seja, tem um charme. (Na medida que o urbano é charme – Nao necessariamente).

Mais eis: Em algum ponto, as memórias perdem o charme. E andar por caminhos nublados pode se revelar em dias extremamente gratuitos. Apenas siga adiante, andarilho(a)…
