I grappled with this one for a while, reading it again and again. But I couldn't put it together, until I realized that this is a compilation of thoughts, images and feelings. Then, I read it again and I let it sink in. Then is became clear to me and I liken it to an old black and white movie being projected on a white wall . The flickering light of the projector hypnotized me as the movie rolled and then I heard the unmistakable sound of the projector's teeth picking up the movie. Lots of powerful imagery here, lots of sounds and visual effects. The title, "Flores Fade" is indicative of withering memories but not necessarily forgotten ones. This poem is a journey into the mind of person whose deep and passionate relationships have left in him a canyon of memories and delights, as well as deep sorrow and pain. And to be able to sit back and reflect on the memories and lives lived is definitely a blessing in disguise! AWESOME!
