Explanation:

Garrett Hongo’s poem “The Legend,” starts with a man stepping out at twilight after doing his wash for the week in Chicago. He has a wrinkled shopping bag full of clean, folded clothes. On coming out, he enjoys the moment and then these lines are mentioned by the poet.

Written in reference to the Dutch artist whose speciality was the light and shadow effect that he gave to his paintings, the poet wants touches over every feature of the man’s face which are all unique on their own but different from each other just like human beings. Human beings need to live their lives and experience every moment just like this man in the poem who is enjoying the warmth of the last sunrays for the day!
