Thus [Pointsman never shows these excursions of his to
anyone], reaching for some flower on my table,
I know the cool mosaic of my room
Begin its slow, inhibitory dissolve
Around the bloom, the stimulus, the need
That brighter burns, as brightness, quickly sucked
>From objects all around, now concentrates
(Yet less than blinding), focuses to flame.
Here the word "bloom" means "flower", is that correct?
