Thank you, @pathforger, for your comment!

I must say, you paint a pretty (albeit spooky) picture in your comment here :D :D :D

I do believe that the reader brings in a lot of him-/herself into a poem, which is why a poem that sucks for me may be the most beautiful one for you, or vice versa.

However, since this is a text that has been distanced from me (its author) by the mere passage of time, I do find it necessary to rip into it, deconstruct it, and rework it as a result.

Thanks again for reading, and have an awesome day!
