PT: A poesia não pede licença nem serve para acalmar: é um território vivo de catarse, voz e atitude. Sou a M.ª Leonor Costa (Nonô) — escritora, performer e criadora de Poesias da Nonô. Dou corpo, som e presença à palavra dita em português e inglês, habitada por heterónimos que navegam entre o visceral, o sagrado e o quotidiano. Entra sem pressa. Lê com o corpo, escuta com a pele e habita este espaço.
EN: Poetry doesn't ask for permission, nor is it meant to soothe: it is a living territory of catharsis, voice, and attitude. I am M.ª Leonor Costa (Nonô) — writer, performer, and creator of Poesias da Nonô. I give body, sound, and presence to spoken word in Portuguese and English, inhabited by heteronyms navigating the visceral, the sacred, and the everyday. Step inside. Read with your body, listen with your skin, and inhabit this space.

Christmas: "My best Christmas gift"

 This poem was published for the first time on December 25, 2014 and is part of the unpublished volume I of Christmas poetry.

Christmas present

My best Christmas gift 2014

My best Christmas gift


My friend Eva

Gave me a beautiful bracelet

She made it the night before

She made it with threads in her own way.

 

She tied it to my wrist with two knots

It's a multicolored bracelet

Her gesture was very affectionate

It was an act of love.

 

This was the best present of my Christmas

Not for the object itself, but for the attitude

There's nothing better to receive

Than a gift with a lot of virtue.
