It WAS interesting. But not in a weird, awkward way. I loved your choices of words and how they all fit together. The phrase "syrupy web" stuck out to me for some reason. I've heard those words used to describe the same things but never together, lol.
It was sexy and unique. Your piece felt new to my mind which is something that not many people can accomplish with an idea that has been written about over and over. Good job!
