The poetic form here, fluid / flexible, verges on extreme.  Main theme content of abandonment is extraordinarily compressed.  The overall work is poem as process: and continues from previous blogs with the idea that the processes of poem making can form a subordinate poem(s) within the main poem; that these interlinear poems can be in italics, or indicated by a change of typeface or typeface colour, or foot-noted at right angles to the main text; and that the interlinear can also be an independent but supporting and related visual image: poetic extension, not merely illustration.
