Pardon me, I'm getting older. And I think too much
Before I read this web site and discovered what the title meant (see FAQ)... i thought, blower - was like a blow-in in town (as in, some one who drifts from town to town), only the object of Damien's affections being the blow-in's daughter.... i thought my theory was good enough until i discovered it was written about the daughter of his clarinet teacher...
