A spurt of blood

When first reading this poem I found myself extremely confused. I could not figure out what the poem was about or why it was written. I found myself very confused as the play seemed to immediately switch from one thing happening to another and by the time the play ended, It was hard to establish a link between the beginning and the end of the play. Aside from the fact I found the play hard to understand  I still found the play very interesting to read as I was intrigued as to where the play was going to go by the end. I also found the play to be very comedic which helped to keep me reading the play as I did not get bored of it very quickly. From what I could read, I could gather that his 'Theatre of cruelty' was very prominent within this play. I could see in the stage direction that at certain points within the play there would be intense flashes of light  (lightning bolts) and there would be big points of sound also at certain points within the play ( noise of the big wheel turning). Artaud also experiments with different pitches of voice at the beginning of the play and also with a random change of accent in the middle of the play (The Priest). Another thing I found myself questioning was the the scale of the lighting and visual effects such as scorpions traveling in between the nurse's legs and the Bawd's dress suddenly becoming transparent.
