TE19 Iberian Adventure

Patrícia Portela

Close your eyes.

Accept my unexpected Judas kiss on the inside cover, as if it were a raft. Die as you drift along this century like it’s the last century, even though we both have so many things left to change.

Make sure there is no storm on the other side.

For no reason at all, wake up into the worst nightmare,.

Without being asked or instructed to, open your eyes.

Note the door we left open and the water pouring in.

Make sure that no one can swim.

Don’t cry for help or wave because drowning is just what happens to an ending. Repeat yourself as much as you want, but don’t expect it to happen any sooner.

Don’t say goodbye.

Just promise you’ll come back.
