A bilingual poetry collection, English and Romanian, about the capital of Brazil. A reflection on the relationship between architecture and nature, constructed space and everything else, history and memory, reality and imagination.
PANDEIRO
Never leave Brasília
without buying a pandeiro
to play for at least an hour
blindfolded with a red scarf
on a long empty street.
Never leave the city
before unfolding the scarf
to see other blindfolded people
walking about
each playing a pandeiro.
