This is quite the read! Deus ex Machina is a saying I've never heard before so I searched it up, essentially I found it meant a seemingly unsolvable problem is resolved unexpectedly. It's interesting, the ideas came up in this powm,such as the inverted fantasies cannibalizing dreams, this sentence is probably my favourite line because it makes me think that the dreams are being put in motion. I think of fantasies and dreams as one of the same. It seems that this poem is a way to go after the impossible, a sort of mentality, kind of like the "one stoplight town" poem, that weaves a perspective into your writing.

I ate this poem up in one felt swoop.
I feel satiated...
and I really like "cannibalizing dreams"
I have gorged on too many myself.

Sometimes enjoy projecting reads more than anything. Thank you, as always, Jacob
