*METAPHYSICAL DIALOGUE*
© By João Batista do Lago/Trad.: Heloisa B.P. (Sabina Vassalo), poeta e escritora portuguesa residente em Bath, Inglaterra.
The philosopher asked the poet:
- Which is the nature of life?
- “To exist.”
- Which is the nature of existing?
- “The desire.”
- Which is the nature of the desire?
- “The necessity.”
[...]
Off went the philosopher, ruminating thoughts...
Remained the poet pregnant with verses.
