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.

Currently it appears like BlogEngine is the best blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?

Nonetheless there is actually one particular position I am not too cozy with and whilst I attempt to reconcile that with the main theme of your point, let me observe exactly what the rest of your subscribers have to point out.Well done.

Hi there! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Together with everything that appears to be building inside this particular area, many of your viewpoints are fairly refreshing. Having said that, I beg your pardon, but I do not subscribe to your entire suggestion, all be it refreshing none the less. It seems to everyone that your comments are actually not completely validated and in fact you are your self not even entirely convinced of your point. In any event I did take pleasure in reading it.

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
