Explore "Be Careful" by Carlos Drummond de Andrade on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Don't open the closed door.
You might find what you weren't seeking or expecting.
In the darkness you might stumble on a hurried couple trying to make love standing up.
That candle in your hand might show you, fluttering, your young slave girl, your owner-husband.
If you're not careful, that just-closed door might tell you a story you don't want to know.
