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.

Poemas da Nonô

 Open letter to Santa Claus

Dear Santa Claus

this year I don't ask you for nothing

Give the gifts to those most in need

I have everything I deserve.

 

Distributes the gifts well

do not forget those in need

give priority to children

their presence softens everything.

 

Do not forget about me

Come visit me

I do not need gifts

but I do not dispense the tenderness of your glance.

 

Dear Santa Claus

Do not forget the disadvantaged

this year bring peace to the world

and remember the most overlooked.
