I think the material in the paragraphs that follow the poem are more like pooetry. The poem simply tells us what the narrator thinks or feels. The other shows us in images and thereby engenders us to think about our own feelings. Here are some examples, pulled from above:

barely visible black dots became patches
shots of memory impose
melting down like old projector film
Pulling out the negatives
stained dusty brickwork
barbed bead of frost
clutching my ticking head
