I don't think I fully understood everything; I've never been terribly good with abstract stuff, so that's my fault. But the language was evocative and beautiful. I did have to mute the sound, but that's because I was determined to read, and I read too quickly for narration. I take in information better when it's written. I should play it again sometime, with just the audio, because it might give me a new perspective. But overall, I was breathless by the end. In a good way.

Thank you! It means a lot to me that you read/played this piece. I am somewhat relieved that you didn't listen to the audio, however the poem read throughout this IF was recited by an extremely talented person with a very beautiful voice who is a extremely potent writer in her own right.
she's on twitter @eris_rlt and I recommend reading though some of her work. If you'd like to listen to her recital I can add her reading to the list of files in a moment independent of the html file.
I unmuted on a whim on my playthrough and was pleasantly surprised that a human was reading certain parts. Like you said, the reader for the poems was excellent. I think you've done a disservice pasting a robot reader onto the majority of the game -- the voice is so slow and so obnoxious and so inhuman that the only choice a player has is to mute the game.
