Thanks. I'm not entirely sure myself, I wrote it in a kind of stream of consciousness way. I think it's about a character who feels a passionate desire to right the wrongs he sees being committed in the world, and he's kind of drawn into this "Man With No Name" style vision of apocalyptic vengeance. He's also raging against his own inner demons too, and feels that he needs to be pure if he is to succeed, hence "I'm tuning up my armour and my penance") Thanks for your question, I've not thought about this before!
