Promessas

Por Fabio Ramos

                                                                               

                                                                          serei cuidadoso 
                                                                          para não ferir ninguém
                                                                          com palavras pontiagudas

                                                                          não direi besteira
                                                                          não pensarei besteira
                                                                          não inventarei besteira

                                                                          vou tomar banho
                                                                          todos os dias
                                                                          e vou tirar
                                                                          a cera do ouvido
                                                                          e vou aparar
                                                                          os pelos do nariz

                                                                          prometo
                                                                          acertar a urina
                                                                          dentro do vaso sanitário
                                                                          e também orar
                                                                          para Fidel, Chávez, Dilma e Lula
                                                                          não morrerem de câncer

                                                                          ainda vou
                                                                          entrar na fila
                                                                          para conseguir
                                                                          um autógrafo do Chalita

                                                                          amigo eterno
                                                                          benevolente
                                                                          prestativo
                                                                          nem um pouco
                                                                          presunçoso

                                                                          as promessas
                                                                          serão cumpridas
                                                                          indubitavelmente
                                                                          no dia 31 de fevereiro
