Brilliant. The entire poem is brilliant. In your evocation of Dorian Gray alone, I found five different angles. This poem is as astounding from a technical lens as it is from a thematic one.
Thank you for that. I quite liked how it came out myself. I was working for quite a while on another poem, that just didn't flow and felt very forced.
I read it to my wife who said "if it's a work in progress than I'm sure it will be good." Which her nice way of saying, it was worse then our child's poems. 🤣
But there was this one line I had in there with this idea of the picture. So I threw away that other poem and this was born.
This has happened to me before as well. There's a natural resistance to certain ideas or topics and some others just leap out.
In any case, I'm glad it did and I'm happy you enjoyed it.
It's such an iconic image I could easily picture it in my mind while reading. Then I watched as it transformed with your words
Yeah, this programming of this picture is strong :) Objectively, as far as photos go, it's pretty good though.

Deeply impressed,
