I think I liked the demiurge figure best--not as in, liked the character, but I admire deft allegorization. To respect that kind of figure too much is to give him the world--as Cormac McCarthy keeps doing. The bad spirit in life isn't an evil genius, just gross and mean, and anxious that we all stay distracted and smeared.
How on earth did you find enough copies? Don't answer if it's incriminating.
So many of Spenser's effects seem to involve having things merge but stay separate--pass through each other but stay substantial and textured. Flaunting or underlining that basic freedom mental objects/words have, one totally defying material analogy (and description, apparently).
