Um caso de amor sob encomenda

Tio Nelson escrevendo conselhos sentimentais

Nos anos 80, no Recife, inaugurei um serviço de cartas e poemas de amor sob encomenda que apelidei de “Miss Corações Solitários”, como no livraço do Nathanael West.

A inspiração, porém, era támbém a Mirna, alterego de Nelson Rodrigues que respondia a leitoras desesperadas nos jornais cariocas.

Mais lascado financeiramente do que maxixe em cruz, apliquei o marketing do miserê e da necessidade. A estratégia foi sucesso. A pensão da rua das Ninfas viveu dias de glória.

Depois de um anúncio nos classificados do “Diário de Pernambuco”, eu não dava mais conta dos pedidos e passei a terceirizar sonetos e acrósticos, tarefa fácil na terra de Manuel Bandeira, onde existem quatro poetas por cada metro quadrado.

Com o meu balcão de lirismo, ajudei a começar romances, reatar namoros, dar esperanças, iludir “boyzinhas”, parabenizar amadas, encorajar amantes, suspirar viúvos, incendiar mancebos e reacender o fogo de lindas afilhadas de Balzac.

A felicidade não se compra, como já nos avisou o cinema, mas que amealhei algumas patacas, amealhei. Recife virou uma festa, melhor do que a Paris de Hemingway.

O motivo dessa crônica, no entanto, não é o de ficar apenas mascando o chiclete Ploc da nostalgia. Nada disso. O motivo é de arrepiar. E se chama Marina Cavalcante.

Pernambucana de Olinda, hoje habitante do bairro de São Matheus, na zona leste de SP, tinha 20 anos quando me encomendou um poema para o namorado. Agora, com “mais de 40”, viu este mal-assombro que vos escreve em um programa de tevê.

Ao me localizar, contou a sua história:  “Ele, Roberto, achava que eu o traía, por isso encomendei o poema sobre a minha fidelidade, pra fazer ele se arrepender e chorar (risos), lembra?” ela pergunta.

Claro que não recordo. Eram tantos casos, menina, como testemunhou o poeta e amigo Jaci Bezerra, com quem dividia a mesma mesa de trabalho nas Edições Pirata, na rua da Hora, bairro do Espinheiro.

E aí, conta logo, Marina: “Depois do poema, ele, Roberto, acreditou em mim, vivemos um lindo amor por cinco anos, o amor da minha vida, por isso a minha felicidade de achar o sr. na televisão, pra agradecer, tanto tempo depois”.

Homem que é homem chora bonito, chora mais alto. Não me contive com o episódio. Marina casou com outro aqui em São Paulo. Agora está separada, mas diz que não esquece o cara que motivou aquele velho poema.

Deu até vontade de retomar as encomendas, as costuras sentimentais para fora. Bom saber que a poesia comove até um macho-jurubeba à moda antiga, do tipo que ainda manda flores, caso do amor de Marina.

Por estas e por outras é que escrevo. Não importa o gênero, o meio, o fim.

    I am exploring the Internet as I never have before. I have more time since I reitred. There is quite a rich diversity of information in blogs so I am getting involved and commenting. I think that you have to put some attention on a blog to bring it above the dry and boring verbage that is common, and you have definitely accomplished that. I am approaching this from all sides, sonce I recently started my own website with its own blog. I have incuded a website and email address. Is it ok that I included them? TheVeryBest2You 13 3

    Any experienced Web consumer can tell you how annoying it’s to see all of these gives without spending a dime stuff. Most of those gives are very flashy however by no means deliver. If they really do deliver, they probably make you wade your way by an hour-long survey that drains all your enthusiasm. Thankfully there’s a strategy to get free stuff without surveys. Many firms supply free samples of their products. You will get these free samples without finishing any surveys. The method is simple and quick. All it’s a must to do is enter your title and deal with and you get a free pattern shipped to your house.

    This is the beginning of my Internet Life. I have reitred from the grind. I can see that there is a rich diversity in the blogs I am reading and I am trying to leave some comment whereever I visit. I don’t understand everything that is in all the blogs that I read, but I like your presentation here in this blog. Well you know I have my own blog and website now. It is fun, to be sure. There was a place to include an email and address, so I have done that. Is this acceptable? I hope this is allright. TheVeryBest2You 13 9

    Ordering free samples is an up and coming pattern that is catching the attention of many people. Those who order free product samples get to attempt tons of interesting, new merchandise completely free! Internet users scour the web for freebie websites searching for all the best free pattern offers. Then, they get them organized straight to their house. These free pattern fans are receiving completely free samples by mail. It’s clear to see why this new trend is changing into so popular. In any case, who doesn’t take pleasure in completely free stuff? I do know I do. Free samples websites collect the entire free sample presents and submit them on their site. They preserve the sites update because the free samples change every day. Right here is an instance of one site.
