Hi,
It's a bit of a late reply, but the very first interpretation I got, after reading the verses, "A thought slips past, and clutters space" was the incessant amount of inspiratory ideals (a thought) a poet might receive for writing any sort of verse, but simply as a passing of the moment. And if he were not to cultivate such and act on it during the moment the thought or theme might hit his mind, but would instead keep it for later, subjecting it to a waiting room within his mind (the "Space"), which eventually would see the cluttering of itself with an influx of these so called inspirations being thrown in, his mind would be so disordered that the poet would not be able to extract such ideals for use.
I do confess however, that this was just my alternate interpretation of the poem, specifically those two verses, and nothing to do with the actual meaning behind this poem which the others have already talked about.
Nevertheless, I thought of sharing it with you, not as a critique, but as a simple comment.
Cheers!
