This has all the feel of Edith Sitwell’s Facades. This is a great use of language and recognition that each syllable is like a note in music. This could get dismissed as nonsense but that would be quite criminal. Meaning (if and when it exists) is the last thing to look for in a poem. The reader should approach a poem as they would approach a vase. Once agreement has been reached on the beauty of the vase only then can they decide what goes in it.
