For some reason this poem shares an affinity, in my mind, with this art rock mini-symphony. It's more than the shared three-movement structure; there's something similar in the management of tension and expectations that are common to the two: https://youtu.be/WGbL_GvL0OY

Thanks for saying so -- you're exactly correct, somehow (since I'd never before heard this music). Definitely, the mini-symphony has its three parts set in both concert but also in formal antagonism with each other. That's what I heard most there and wrote foremost above. Thank you for piecing together the two pieces!
