I wonder, is this really such a poem failure? It's intriguing and the language is quite rich. If this is about someone who is helping himself going down the drain, it's an original view.
Although I get the impression that it is not the body that is 'abolished', but the brain.

Damned those capitals again! Because do I read:
'I ask what good that body is,
complete (and) abolished'
or
'I ask what good that body is; complete
(but) abolished'?
