I think that besides

 Years of calculated movements
 Nights of instant sleep
 A habit of obsessive cleaning

And

 A mild distain
 For everything she didn't create
 As if it all flew closer
 Than a comfortable distance

There were things
That everyone wanted

 In her cloudy summers
 She made it seem
 As if the sky was heaped onto the prairie
 Like boulders of glass

And

 The nights in the park
 The snowy days
 The rain in the late afternoon
 All of the movies, all of the movies!

Those things turned over and over
In the mind of every worker
Who's travelling away from the comforts

Everything that everyone else
Knows about for sure

 All those things came true
 They were wonderful
 Like you'd expect
 To feel

If you'd fulfilled
Almost yourself
The promises of the world

 And the promises
 That every high school boyfriend
 And girl-
 Friend
 Makes

And whether she actually gave us
All of this

 After thorough examination
 Close and detailed analysis
 Further study

It all seems to be
Still quite unclear.
