As you have pointed out, it’s not plagiarism since it’s got the acknowledgment right after the title.
The palm tree, lightning is an allusion, though not a good one IMO. It changes the way in which you’d view the line.
Long story short, this is either a found poem or just a regular poem. It’s random nonsense weaved into the form of a poem. I don’t think random nonsense and everyday speech needs acknowledgement. That’s how you get patents for some idiot who invents a blue tipped pencil holder instead of a green tipped one. The whole concept of copyright and IP in the west is BS, but that’s another story.
