The starting line "a demon boy standing with eastern splendor" draws the reader's attention right away. Specially the word "eastern," it captivates me, I am unsure as to how I should interpret it, but I like it. Though, "eastern" gives me a sense of direction as to where this picture comes from.

The second line " a sky above no longer transcendent blue," followed by "but a blue of a beauty unknown" gives a good description of how the sky in the picture looks like. The word transcendent sounded poetical as well as I feel that it goes well with the vocables used in this piece. It fits!

The fourth line "A wasted sight even by the devil's standards" confuses me a bit as I don't know why the narrator thinks is a wasted sight, since in the beginning it was mentioned that it was a beauty unknown. . . but is effective at making me wonder and thus wanting me to read farther to find out my answer.

The fifth line "The eye so brilliant as the eastern season of a year" is another line that successfully confuses me. The word "eastern" once again, but shouldn't it be "Easter?"
In this line, though, eastern is used as a simile... comparing the eye and the Eye if I am not mistaken it's the view. The view that demon is seeing is brilliant as the easter season of a year... when Jesus died and then resurrected.

The Six line "Darkness and a strange rising, even then," adds mystery to the poem, as well as the next one "The birds are only searching for a meal for thy bellies," though I think "thy" should be "their." The words "even then" and "only" makes me think that even though something unknown is happening in the picture, it seems that there is nothing to worry about as the birds are not worrying about anything else other than their food. And isn't that what birds always do? or what their focus is? Then the following line "Living, or otherwise" makes me doubt what I just said... thus the mystery that I find in those words. The "otherwise" as if the birds have no other option but to continue living by searching for food despite whatever is happening in the picture... they are not giving up on life, no matter what.

The ninth line "the city so distant and foreboding," followed by "not even the strongest of travelers dare cross its boundaries" finally clears my doubts. Something bad is happening. See not even the"strongest of travels" dare cross it. Something horrible is happening no doubt.

Then on the eleventh line "The soft delicate bunny," it might have been just me but I felt the bunny was just thrown in that line to introduce it but ... to me felt like a forceful introduction as I was pondering on the horrible things that might be happening in the city.. so I felt like it was a tough wake up... from what I was thinking. I mean I was picturing this bad things happening and suddenly, I think about the soft bunny... kind of sweet but I'm still uncertain if I like it or not... However, that just means that I am really drawn to the picture and the poem.

The twelfth line "ponder the demon boy as if of some odd ancient arrangement" when I thought about the switched on of lines from the city to the bunny... and then on this one.. it gave me the image as if the boy was staring at the city when suddenly his view changed to the bunny. So the way I am feeling about this write is that I am the narrator and I am the one observing everything in the picture... but in reality what I am observing is the boy's reaction to what he is observing. He is awestruck at such a beautiful destruction. ... but a wasted sight perhaps, because the world would die but it would resurrect? and the boy will not see this view again. . . per se?

The ending " But the boy only smiled, as the world wept as it died in mid-heaven" was fitting and I truly enjoyed this piece. As far as the title... I don't think the title fits this piece. I think Rinzler is like a ninja.. So my only guess is that Rinzler is the name of the demon boy. I mean it might be fitting but I feel like it needs something more to grabbed the reader... Through the eye of Rinzler? ... I have no idea. But this was a really creative narrative as well as a nice way of making me feel part of the picture.
