Receita de Mulher

Let the very ugly forgive me
But beauty is essential.
There must be something flowery in all of this
Something of dance, something of haute couture
In all of this (or else Let the woman socialize elegantly in blue,
like in the People's Republic of China).
There is no middle ground possible. It must
All be beautiful. It must suddenly
Give the impression of seeing a heron just landed and that a face
Occasionally acquires that color only found in the third minute of dawn.
All this must be without being, but it must reflect and blossom
In the eyes of men. It must, it is absolutely necessary
That everything be beautiful and unexpected. It must be that closed eyelids
Remind one of a verse by Éluard and that something beyond flesh
Be caressed in some arms: that one touches them
As in the amber of an afternoon. Ah, let me tell you
That the woman there, like the corolla before the bird
Be beautiful or at least have a face that resembles a temple and
Be light as a wisp of cloud: but be a cloud
With eyes and buttocks. Buttocks are extremely important. Eyes then
Needless to say, that they look with a certain innocent malice. A mouth
Fresh (never moist!) is also extremely relevant.
The extremities must be slender; some bones
Must protrude, especially the kneecap when crossing legs, and the pelvic points
When embracing a moving waist.
However, the problem of the soap dishes is very serious: a woman without soap dishes
Is like a river without bridges. Indispensable.
There must be a hint of a little belly, and then
The woman must rise like a chalice, and her breasts
Must be a Greco-Roman expression, but Gothic or Baroque
And able to illuminate the dark with a minimum capacity of five candles.
It is extremely pertinent that the skull and the spinal column
Be slightly visible; and that there be a large dorsal estate!
The limbs must end like stems, but there must be a certain volume of thighs
And they must be smooth, smooth as a petal and covered with very soft down
However, sensitive to caresses in the opposite direction.
It is advisable to have a sweet grass with its own aroma in the armpit
Just sensitive (a minimum of pharmaceutical products!).
Long necks are undoubtedly preferable
So that the head sometimes gives the impression
Of having nothing to do with the body, and the woman does not resemble
Flowers without mystery. Feet and hands must contain discreet
Gothic elements. The skin must be fresh on the hands, arms, back, and face
But the hollows and recesses must have a temperature never lower
Than 37 degrees Celsius, potentially causing first-degree burns
The eyes, preferably large
And rotating at least as slowly as the Earth; and
That they always be placed beyond an invisible wall of passion
That must be overcome. The woman must be tall in principle
Or, if short, have the mental attitude of high peaks.
Ah, let the woman always give the impression that if you close your eyes
When you open them she will no longer be present
With her smile and her schemes. Let her appear, not come; leave, not go
And let her have a certain ability to suddenly fall silent and make us drink
The gall of doubt. Oh, above all
Let her never lose, no matter in what world
No matter in what circumstances, her infinite volatility
Of a bird; and that when caressed deep within herself
She turns into a beast without losing her birdlike grace; and that she always exhales
The impossible perfume; and always distills
The intoxicating honey; and always sings the inaudible song
Of her combustion; and never ceases to be the eternal dancer
Of the ephemeral; and in her incalculable imperfection
Constitute the most beautiful and perfect thing in all creation countless.
