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.

    Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Chrome. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon. Kudos

    Virtually all of the things you say is supprisingly precise and that makes me ponder the reason why I hadn’t looked at this with this light previously. This piece truly did switch the light on for me as far as this particular issue goes. But at this time there is actually one point I am not really too cozy with so whilst I make an effort to reconcile that with the main theme of your position, let me observe exactly what all the rest of the visitors have to point out.Very well done.

    I simply wanted to thank you very much once again. I do not know the things that I could possibly have implemented in the absence of the entire hints discussed by you concerning my industry. It became an absolute alarming condition for me personally, but understanding a specialised manner you resolved it made me to cry over delight. I am happy for this guidance and even pray you comprehend what an amazing job you are always getting into instructing people by way of your websites. Probably you’ve never encountered all of us.

  22. Was Kostet Eine Scheidung comentou em 04/08/12 at 22:08

    Throughout this grand design of things you secure an A+ for effort. Exactly where you misplaced me personally ended up being on your particulars. You know, as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details… And it could not be much more accurate at this point. Having said that, let me say to you exactly what did work. Your text is really persuasive and that is probably the reason why I am taking the effort to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, despite the fact that I can notice the jumps in logic you make, I am not necessarily convinced of how you seem to connect the ideas which inturn make your conclusion. For the moment I will, no doubt subscribe to your position but hope in the foreseeable future you link your dots much better.

    Right now it appears like BlogEngine is the preferred blogging platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
