DRUGS COCKTAIL

DRUGS COCKTAIL
drugs wait for me on time
I prepare them carefully
one by one
as if a failure or forgetfulness
prevent me from staying alive
I swallow them all together
so they follow the right path
and don't deviate from me
by mistake
or betrayal of my body
scattered on the floor
lost in the dustbin

///

COCKTAIL DE DROGAS

as drogas esperam-me a horas certas
preparo-as cuidadosamente
uma a uma
como se uma falha ou esquecimento
me impedisse de continuar vivo
engulo-as todas juntas
para que sigam o caminho certo
e não se desviem de mim
por engano
ou traição do meu corpo
espalhadas no chão
perdidas no caixote do lixo

by Armando TABORDA, 2021

With this abundance of tablets, it's really hard to maintain an overview!
