Oráculo do crepúsculo: uma poesia do entardecer

Abstract

Raimundo Barroso Cordeiro Jr. presents us with a collection of poetry that delves into the nuances of dusk. The work, part of the Paraíba Literária collection, reveals the author’s sensitivity when exploring everyday and introspective themes. The influence of Carlos Drummond de Andrade and Manuel Bandeira is evident in Cordeiro Jr.’s poetry. He weaves words masterfully, capturing the fleetingness of moments and the melancholy that permeates twilight. Anguish and delicacy intertwine, creating a lyrical scenario that invites us to reflect. The poetic language is accessible, but not simplistic. Cordeiro Jr. plays with words, creating vivid and moving images. His verses transport us to the threshold between day and night, where the light bids farewell and introspection flourishes. Oracle of Twilight is an ode to transience, ephemeral beauty, and the search for meaning in fleeting moments. Cordeiro Jr. invites us to look at the reddish sky and find poetry in the twilight itself. In short, this work is an invitation to contemplation, to connect with the world and to appreciate the simplicity that hides in the sunset.
