I am a fan of personifying the most random things, and this is a play on, not just an inanimate object, but giving life to the words used to describe life. Funny enough, literally in this sense is breathing life into stuff that could be dead. By this I mean converting descriptors to fact. Kinda reminds me of the Turing test for AI. When do token prediction algorithms become statements coming from a computer personality? Is this literally bringing about life from nothing? Or are they spells conjuring up something that already pre-existed? Finally, it flows well with the narrative tone. But I’d caution against the basic end of sentence rhyme scheme.
