I'm going to be a bit of a crank and say that this format is not, inherently, conducive to producing meaning. We had an editor trying to keep it within the pentameter structure, sure, but otherwise it's just sort of one image trying to follow the next. (Which would probably be great in some schools of poetry, but eh.)

Contrast this with the Twitter account @pentametron, which automatically retweets random lines from unrelated users when they happen to form heroic couplets. Here where there's absolutely zero expectation of coherence, then on the rare occasion the two lines have something to do with each other, it's hilarious.

(Kudos to whoever came up with "batting cage" though. Got to love batting cages.)
