Photo by Armando Taborda

there are gods for all tastes
of marble and other stones
of bronze and other metals
of wood and other woodworms
of gold and other precious materials
let us therefore pray according to our creed
or the indifference of agnostics and atheists
but let's pray because
there are gods for all tastes
love and hatred
peace and war
bonanza and hunger
sickness and health
life and death
in truth there is nothing better than having a good protective god
or a football club
for taking our frustrations
uncertainties
and fears
and give us strength
at least enough strength
to continue to hope that
the real life
begins after death

///

há deuses para todos os gostos
de mármore e outras pedras
de bronze e outros metais
de madeira e outros carunchos
de ouro e outros preciosos materiais
oremos pois de acordo com o nosso credo
ou a indiferença dos agnósticos e ateus
mas oremos porque
há deuses para todos os gostos
amor e ódio
paz e guerra
bonança e fome
doença e saúde
vida e morte
em boa verdade não há nada melhor do que ter um bom deus protector
ou um clube de futebol
que assuma as nossas frustrações
incertezas
e medos
e nos dê forças
pelo menos a força suficiente
para continuarmos à espera
de que a verdadeira vida
comece depois da morte
