The Pallidness Of Life Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

The Pallidness Of Life



I'd rather remember
only the colorful blossoms
surrounding the departed.

I'd rather remember
their characters & scent
and not some waxen faces
straight out of the mold.

I'd rather remember
the crimsons & the yellows
and the whites & the pinks.

I'd rather forget
the thorns & pricks & angst
& contradictions
of existence.
