The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

i can hardly remember the last time i watched a movie and cried

after the movie, i felt quite touching

there is an old man with the radio during Pete Perkin's journey to bury his friend

"Kill me," cried he

and thus my tears dropped

it took one a long, everlasting while to find out the sense of belonging

the old man did and i looked up to that

***

again, the scene that Pete proposed to Rachel, his underground lover, transported me

it was not right

Rachel was unfaithful to her husband,

but i don't see any trace of love between them anymore basically

my point is that, as a playboy,

except that he was responsible for his ranch and friend,

Pete wasted time away on many women

and one day he just realized that the "One" has appeared

maybe he was drunk

still, betrayal served as a model and permeated the plot

once a good thing happened

all the bad things seemed so far-away, sarcastic

and this contrast mesmerized me deeply

almost i cried

L.O.V.E would remain most disputable gambit

lamb3, a friend of mine asked me the other days

"who on earth do you like?"

"why bother to ask?" i thought

one will know it if one is the very whom i truly like

go hitting some books, lamb3

***

not being the leading role, patrolman Mike brought me some fantasy

Hamartia, the character of a hero in a Homeric epic

which defines that s/he is clever, smart

but falls to depravity due to arrogance

Mike was quite a fit one

he didn't have to hit the Mexican woman

he didn't have to shoot back

he didn't have to underestimate his wife

the aftermath was "ouch"

***

"You got a grave to dig," said Pete

this must be one of the classical of the movie

the plot was seemingly funny

quite the contrary

after all these toiling days Pete made believe

all what he had achieved was worthy of being praised

he was helping his good friend, Mel

so in vain, helpless

reminisced to the plot of "The Trail"

at the end of the movie

there lay the relics of a ship right in the desert beside the ocean

it was not until i read the review afterwards that i figured this out

shipwreck, invaders, diamonds

they came all the way to look for diamonds

and they passed away in due course

so in vain, helpless

oh my god, this freaks me out..

realize that one would be inundated by the passage of time, silence

when i was a child

i used to wail because that night i'd been told by my cousin that we all would die

why am i being here then

better myself, be filial, be more responsible, oh i don't give a damn

feeling sad and bored after you're done with this piece





a thing as such... you know...





relax and "haha"
