The Negro Speaks of Rivers

Conheo rios:

Conheo rios to antigos quanto o mundo e mais velhos que ofluxo de sangue humano nas veias humanas.

Minha alma se tornou profunda como os rios.

Banhei-me no Eufrates quando eram jovens as auroras.

Constru minha cabana junto ao Congo e ele me cantou canes de ninar.

Olhei para o Nilo e acima dele levantei as pirmides.

Ouvi o canto do Mississippi quando Abe Lincoln desceu at New Orleans

e vi seu seio lamacento tornar-se ouro, ao pr-do-sol.

Conheo rios:

Antigos, cinzentos rios.

Minha alma se tornou profunda como os rios.

Langston Hughes, 1920

[] me senti triste que o jovem disse isso, pois nenhum

grande poeta jamais teve medo de ser ele mesmo. [...] Mas

essa a montanha no caminho de qualquer verdadeira arte

negra na Amrica -- essa vontade dentro da raa em direo brancura, o desejo de derramar individualidade racial nos

moldes da padronizao americana, e ser to pouco negro e

quanto mais americano quanto possvel. (HUGHES, 1926:1)

On Harlem -- Deferred Dreams

O que acontece quando se adia um sonho?

Ser que ele seca

Como uva passa?

Ser que inflama como ferida -E depois apodrece?

Ser que fede como carnia?

Ou cristaliza -

Como a calda do doce?Talvez s se acomode

Como carga pesada.

Ou ser que explode?
