My copy arrived today, and I made a few little notes on this one. There's a lot of words to do with connection, joining and tracing a sequence, as clear from the first few lines.

Annex
late 14c., "connect with," from Old French annexer "to join, attach" (13c.), from Medieval Latin annexare, frequentative of Latin annecetere "to bind to," from ad "to" (see ad-) + nectere "to tie, bind" (from PIE root *ned- "to bind, tie"). Usually meaning "to join in a subordinate capacity," but that notion is not in the etymology. Of nations or territories, c. 1400

Succession
early 14c., successioun, "fact or right of succeeding someone by inheritance," from Old French succession "inheritance; a following on" (13c.) and directly from Latin successionem (nominative successio) "a following after, a coming into another's place, result," noun of action from successus, past participle of succedere (see succeed).The meaning "fact of being later in time" is late 14c. The meaning "a regular sequence, a following of things in order" is from mid-15c.

---------------------------------------------

So following the lead from those two keywords at the beginning of the poem, you also have:

Carried - as in 'carried on' or carried forward
Joined
Affixed
Welded
Attached

Con-
word-forming element meaning "together, with," sometimes merely intensive;

Condition/converge/congerie/contrition

Like a lot his poems, there seems to be a process being traced over time, a force, with this time perhaps to do with inheritance (succession) - I think it's significant the final word is 'fated', the inevitable end of the process.

Obviously there's loads of other stuff in there I can't account for, but that's my first impression and a possible way in.

Come on lads, help me out with this one. I spent nearly 20 euros on this flimsy little pamphlet, so I'm determined to get as much out of it as possible!
