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.

    With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being ripped off? I’d certainly appreciate it.

    Boa noite amigos, com certeza mandar um SMS grátis está cada vez mais trabalhoso devido falta de opções das operadoras de telefone. Há ainda os websites que prometem entregar meu SMS mas nem sempre chegam recepiente final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que dizem que enviam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as meus SMS? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de comprar?. É só um desabafo, realmente está difícil achar serviços para mandar SMS barato.

    You lost me, friend. I mean, I suppose I get what youre stating. I have an understanding of what you are saying, but you just seem to have ignored that there are some other folks inside the world who see this issue for what it definitely is and may not agree with you. You may possibly be turning away a lot of men and women who might have been lovers of your website.

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
