I think it's the unknown that brings the real power out of this piece. The man has a rich story in his mind but I don't get to know the details, only the resulting scars lying on his withered face. In that absence I like projecting my own images into the character, or in this case one of the side characters from Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road' fits your subject's profile pretty well, an old man walking down a road after the complete destruction of civilization. Dark book, dark poem. Thanks for sharing.
