          | Yeah, the lack of specificity in the poem makes it not stick to the wall quite as well, asking the reader to fill that in/explore. 
 All or any of the above.

          | Revisiting to try a new thing. Reading it out, I stumbled in a few places. Also adjusting for timing... Do I edit this into oblivion or make a v3 that is its own thing?

 paint me a picture with countable stanzas,
 colors that rhyme directly and slant,
 paint me the lines that twist their own language,
 that form a new form when rendered as chant,
 paint me a picture that makes its own being,
 make it sing loudly the chords of the soul
 and paint it again, and again, and again.

          | Feels a little clipped to me in places (first two lines set a cadence for me that I then trip on line three). 
 I like the second view, definitely think it adds something. Though perhaps it would be less on the nose using the word "palm"?

          | I kind of want to hear this out loud, ranted on stage, maybe with some jazz behind it. I don't know how well it holds up for me for re-reading, I don't feel like it "wraps up" for me? but maybe it doesn't need to. I really want it to wrap up more, though. |  |  |

          | Are you the sea foam? Can that be merged with the jester? I don't feel the mixing of metaphors as they stand, but maybe that could be embraced more somehow? |  |  |

 javax.activation was removed from Java9 forwards, so I had to include it manually.

          | Too much cliche in word choice makes it hard for me to involve myself in reading the poem. I believe there's a lot of emotion in this, but it doesn't translate/transfer to me. |  |  |
