No, though I can see the connection you've made. It's actually a kind of foresight, the narrator is looking into his future and seeing with absolute finality his end. He's completely aware of all the things he's done and though he knows that it was wrong he can't find it within himself to be anything but self-concerned.
I enjoyed reading your poem a couple of posts ago. The architecture of it would do it justice as an oath or mantra in a novel perhaps? |
