Almovadar ...

Soon I'll be watching Almovadar's Dolor y Gloria -

I'll drink a plummy Merlot -

I'll forget, for a while, those appalling talking heads -

The lights in the auditorium will dim -

I'll lose myself in film -

The auteur will shape memory with tender hands -

Later, I'll walk down the quiet street -

I'll see my own life as if it were a movie -

Each early scene the sweeter for the showing -
