In the 4th stanza first line, do I read it as be-imani? Or bema-ani. (Be-imani is dishonesty and bem-ani will be something which has no meaning)

[crimson ibex]

“bemaani” means “meaningless” or “insignificant”. It is used to describe something that lacks value, purpose, or significance. In the context of this couplet it conveys that the sorrows/pains carried within the fragrance are without meaningful or constructive reason.

Your second interpretation is correct

[candid flax]

Oh yess that's what I thought too coz that fits the stanza

[candid flax]

I'll recite it here
I loveee it bro

I'm just waiting for the bg noises to end ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ
