As in the use of the passive voice along with the word "dissipated" kills any fluidity the sentence might have. The simile used also just doesn't flow well in the aftermath, like just linguistically/rhythmically I have trouble parsing it. None of these things are necessarily bad in isolation but together it just forms a sentence that I have to double take and reread to see if that's actually what was written.
But also this is just my opinion! If you like it, then you like it, don't mind me!!!
