A nova cruz brasileira
A cruz em forma de X
Diferente das cruz das Igrejas
Da cruz que ocupou Paris
Mas tal como as outras cruzes
Aponta, julga e condena
Amarra os pés e as mãos
Dos que já nascem com ela
Cruz escrita ma testa
(Doente, febril, amarela)
Cruz desenhada nos vãos
(Entre os dentes da boca banguela)
Cruz sobre os viadutos
(Início da nova favela)
Cruz em cada cruzamento
(Vendendo limão e miséria)
Cruz imensa em suor
(Que pinga e não fura pedras)
Cruz marcada a fogo
(Nos malhos, caldeiras, panelas)
Nas mãos
Na testa
Nas pedras
A cruz selando o destino
Do morto, que vivo se enterra
O futuro como um precipício
A cruz lá embaixo, à espera
