The door of Satan -

But Oh, what an entrance.

Bizarre tone shifts, not much said

The mocking tone and obscure imagery keeps the reader at a distance which I find off-putting. It is a little funny that the narrator gets run over while gazing up romantically at the sky. Wonderful sonics. Loved 'delicate marshy tones,' but aside from comic relief, what do I take from this? That love is shit? That romance is worth nothing? That fancy talk thee and firmament make me think you're full of shit. Still, worth mentioning.

I'm completely lost here. Not sufficiently edu-ma-cated to grasp at much of this, other than the first lines. When you resurface (hopefully not from within the firmament) I would be interested in some kind of elucidation of intent/references.

You discussed this in a thread somewhere, can't find it yet. Shalom.
