the second read i took it a little slower, more for meaning. ill save that for later though.
third read i broke it down, taking each word on its own to expand on the meaning i got from the second read.
line 1: aesthetic - having a sense of the beautiful; pertaining to, involving, or concerned with pure emotion and sensation as opposed to pure intellectuality. author could have simply said beautiful dreams, or just dreams, but aesthetic brings with it a sense of not just emotion and beauty, but a detailed and meticulous beauty. the word choice brings a different sound to the phrase, a different taste as it rolls off the tongue
line 2: the fact that these aesthetic dreams question wild rhythms gives them a rebellious air, almost stubborn. it shows that they dont just have a pretty face, but substance as well.
line 3: by placing the word traditionally into this line, the author implies that the silhouettes may not be vivid now. perhaps people assume they are vivid, without giving a second glance to confirm their previous beliefs. or, perhaps these silhouettes conform to what is traditionally thought of them, causing them to lack the substance that the dreams have.
line 4: [forgotten included] this line, in conjunction with the last, hints towards the first interpretation of traditionally vivid silhouettes. perhaps the long forgotten past has faded into memory, blurring the once vivid details
final statement: this ties back to the beginning of the poem, saying that real life is fast paced and unpredictable, like the beautiful, rebellious dreams.
overall: the poet here questions the lifestyles of today, although glamorous and stuffed with activities of every sort, because the beautiful dreams we harbor in our hearts draw us away from the once wonderful past. once upon a time, the past was celebrated and passed down through generations. now, we are too caught up in the moment to let ourselves fall into sync with the "wild" rhythms of a time we were not a part of. life has become memory's worst enemy, emphasizing the now and letting the then drift off into a blurring sunset.
