Cut Memories
Rex Wilder
 
 
I take my memories for the short 
 Term, like cut flowers to be 
 Enjoyed for three or four days, 
 While still fresh, while not 
 Too receded1（后退，减弱）, and before they become 
 Brown at the edges, and the voices 
 Change, and the hair 
 Assumes the color of the hour, 
 And the building where 
 The memory took place is torn down. 
 I like my memories before 
 The story of their disappearance 
 Gets old, when you can 
 Still inhale2 them off your pillow.
