Garrett, I find it very interesting that he would read that poem to a group of college students because it represents the dystopian, predicting the future aspect of this piece. Not only is he describing all of the people he has seen that have been lost to the world of sex and drugs, he is trying to prevent future generations from repeating the same mistakes. Zach, I think you did a good job connecting the three sections of the poem. I personally did not recognize the connection because I was too caught up with the first section of the poem. I also was not familiar with the biblical allusion of Moloch (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Moloch). Knowing this reference makes the connection much more clear.
