The world of seven wells

In this poem Storni makes reference to seven wells. She is making reference to the two eye sockets, two nostrils, two ear holes, and the mouth. She uses very vivid wording when describing these parts of the body. She ends the poem with "And there shines on the curve of the forehead, a white desert, the distant light of a dead moon..." I feel that this is a good end to the poem since she was vivid in her descriptions throught it.
