This sort of verse must be appreciated as a collage of fragmented masterpieces or disregarded as a pile of broken rubbish. The flow carried me through because your rhyme scheme was ridiculous. I had flashes of a single-path narrative, and each of your lines individually made some level of sense to me (excepting the few where I had no frames of reference on your allusions).
Those allusions were such a unique mixture. You had Korova Milk Bars stuck in Canadian provinces and bodies of water taking United Nations dick. I put together some level of commentary on the world's socioeconomic climate, but I'm not sure the thesis was completed. I say I'm not sure because, again, there were a small handful of lines I simply didn't understand. I have no idea what "Karzamakov" means, for instance. I even Googled that one, to no avail.
My preference tends to be writing grounded in concrete images. But that might be my writing ability talking. I simply couldn't write something like this, and I appreciate the level of skill that goes into it.
