This mind that grinds & twists beneath the skin

i think you gave it away too soon

i'm always averse to spoilers until a few people have given a response.
my problem with the extended metaphor is that the poem also contains a literal story.
so much so that while i do see some metaphor, i see it wrapped in an action and outcome.

Haha, sorry! I suppose I'll have to be a little more coy next time!

Yeah, I get what you mean about the extended metaphor. And you're right about the title. For ages it was "Cupio dissolvi", which I thought was really fitting, but I was also worried that it'd come off a little pretentious.
