invent yourself and then reinvent yourself...


no leaders, please


invent yourself and then reinvent yourself,
don't swim in the same slough.
invent yourself and then reinvent yourself
and
stay out of the clutches of mediocrity.

invent yourself and then reinvent yourself,
change your tone and shape so often that they can
never
categorize you.

reinvigorate yourself and
accept what is
but only on the terms that you have invented
and reinvented.

be self-taught.

and reinvent your life because you must;
it is your life and
its history
and the present
belong only to
you.




"Roubei" este poema do Bukowsky do blog da Joana. Soube-me muito bem lê-lo. Inventar, reinventar, desafiar, chocar, tirar o tapete a, desbaratinar, veste "azul" hoje e amanhã "castanho", são tudo verbos e acções que me são muito caras. Obrigado a ele e a ela.
