VESTIRME - Candy Darling

.uma pessoa. Candy Darling.


Nasceu como James Lawrence Slattery, depois tornando-se Hope Dahl, depois Candy Dahl, depois Candy Cane, depois Candy Darling. Escreveu, numa carta para Warhol em seu leito de morte: Unfortunately before my death I had no desire left for life . . . I am just so bored by everything. You might say bored to death. Did you know I couldn't last? I always knew it. I wish I could meet you all again.


CANDY SAYS - Velvet Underground


Candy says I've come to hate my body

and all that it requires in this world

Candy says I'd like to know completely

what others so discreetly talk about


I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder

I'm gonna watch them pass me by

Maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see

If I could walk away from me


Candy says I hate the quiet places

that cause the smallest taste of what will be

Candy says I hate the big decisions

that cause endless revisions in my mind


I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder

I'm gonna watch them pass me by

Maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see

If I could walk away from me




Candy Darling in her Deathbed by Peter Hujar
