Did something happen the next/previous sunday morning?
And bees pollinate, which in turn allows new plants. Maybe it reflects a new creation of some sort coming into being.

The time stamp for the page is April but June is also mentioned in the poem. And we have letters swapped around. Maybe the months should be swapped. Maybe in the timestampā¦?
Also @ThatBomberBoi asked why these specific words have k, e, y swapped aroundā¦maybe that gives us an order.
K line 4
E line 1
Y line 2
Edit: @YourBasicMaths asked the questionā¦

Lines 1,4 both have words used directly in Sunday Morning, as well as the misspellings which point us to āKEYā
The only other line with misspelling (2), doesnt seem to have any unique words that are also a part of Sunday Morning. 1. Maybe thatās the corrupted fragment we need to find? The other two have been partially recovered by the system
That was actually @YourBasicMaths in the post revealing the DM 
In the mean time, did anyone else who DMed @the_architect get a reply yet? I wonder how theyāre choosing where to communicate from. Also interesting that we didnāt get a site security log for this communication (assuming its also āunintendedā)

I sent em a wordlist and some lore-adjacent sounding sentences mostly, you sent it a more human message.
Maybe someoneās gotta try flirting with em next 
EDIT: I went back to check my DM with @the_architect, looks like they came back to look at it at some point. I guess they did vet the list to see who to reply too.

FYI, the memory bloc / Unix timestamp on the page is different from the manually set timestamp on the image. The page timestamp is 1113384720 while the image has only two metadata fields set, author: A, and timestamp: 1113391699. The difference between the two timestamps is 6979.

Iāve been kind of working on this theory, that @the_architect chose their words precisely, that the line, āAction required: inject_additional_dataā was a big hint, in that the data weāre meant to inject is quite literally additional data that doesnāt appear in the original Wallace Stevens poem.
Additional data that appeared as a result of corruption.
In other words, that the job is to find all words in the prior and current corrupted poem which do not appear in the original.
And that those words may be the data weāre meant to inject. So I took some time to identify all the words that do not appear in the original Wallace Stevens poem.
I also treated the secondary corrupted poem as a sort of filter (unsure if necessary).
Any words that do not appear in the original Stevens poem, while also having appeared in BOTH versions of the corrupted poem, are the data meant to be injected. I created a secondary list which simply contains all words across both poems that do not appear in the original Stevens poem.
Note on methodology: Words that were partial matches (i.e. plural versions of words, or words with apostrophes) I counted as having appeared in the original poem. I applied the same logic to the filter for consistency.
Hereās how that turned out (and Iāll add my idea to @ThatBomberBoiās google sheet for the record:
Initial corrupted poem:
Blue(1) birds(3) are(2) invisible(0) on(6) the(39) blue(1) sky(4),
They(7) vanish(0) in(21) silence(0) where(5) secrets(0) lie(0).
No(3) wing(s4), no(3) shadow(s1), no(3) trace(0) in(21) the(39) light(0),
They(7) are(2) the(39) unseen(0) that(12) watches(0) the night(1).
Secondary corrupted poem:
Dark(1) birds(3) aer(2) invisible(0) on(6) the(39) Aprilās(1) night(1) sky(4),
Thye(7) vanish(0) in(21) silence(0) where(5) lies(0) hide(0).
No(3) wing(s4), no(3) shadow(s1), no(3) trace(0) beneath(0) June(1)'s lights(1),
They(7) are(2) the(39) awakened(1) watches(0) that(12) tikc(0) through(0) time(0).
Words from the initial corrupted poem which do not appear in the original Stevens poem:
invisible vanish silence secrets lie trace unseen watches
Words from the secondary corrupted poem which do not appear in the original Stevens poem:
invisible vanish silence lies hide trace beneath watches tick through time
Words that appear in both lists of words:
invisible vanish silence trace watches
All words across both corrupted poems that do not appear in the Stevens poem:
invisible vanish silence secrets lie lies hide trace beneath unseen watches tick through time
Lastly, another interesting way of looking at this is purely to track the changes between Skyscraper poems. The words that surface when extracting only the new words are:
Dark Aprilās night
Lies hide
Beneath Juneās
Awakened watches that tick through time

Perhaps there are hints to look in the shadows of the image? I have no clue about how to investigate images.
Or the green parts of teh image, since April is linked to green in the poem.

And yet most of the quotes in the list are lines from Stevensā poems.
Yes, a poem is not a quote - but you can quote from a poem. And the list does.
Stevens also wrote a lot of prose - essays and such - but Iām not going to attempt to plough through all that. The āQuoteā page gives us lines from a poem - Iām sticking to that.

Just a point about this, POST is usually used to add new data. If we need to add a new data block, we should use POST. However, if weāre going to update an existing block, we should probably use PUT or PATCH?

Regarding the āAprilās night skyā on the 24th of April 2005 there was a penumbral lunar eclipse.
Donāt know if itās relevant but thought it was worth mentioning.

Iāve been digging into the poem a little more, and the transpositions, coupled with the words.
are to aer: the swap is positions 2 and 3. They to Thye, which is positions 3&4, and then tick to tikc, which has positions 3&4.
Are, They, Tick
So does the POST request mean you have to inject the corrected words perhaps? Or are those transpositions part of the code needed to unlock or stabilise the fragment? I didnāt get a chance to jump into Waking Titan, but this is fascinating..!
On a side note ; Sunday morning / Wallace Stevens. Didnāt Sean post his emoji on Sunday morning..? Is that unusual? If not, is it coincidence?

Maybe we have to inject the word remembrance? Thatās the item we need to have to access forgotten memories in terminals in NMS, after all, and itās a remarkable word in the original poem between April and June.

Nice angle.
In 2005, only 13th of february, march and november are sunday

Edit edit : as for the 10/04 (previous) nothing
The 17/04 (next) : a breakthrough in Greek translation AND an historic pillow fight lol
So, sorry, dead end.
