Well spotted, I know it was something but couldn't quite figure it out!
The text does need sorting, you either go with alot of text taking a lot of room or very small text which you can hardly see, you've stuck yourself right in the middle and it doesn't work.
I think the effect you were trying to create was this man dying in a fiery building, I guess it's kind of worked but still hard to make of, it's probably got something to do with what TX said, the contrast, a little bit of hue with a gradient wouldn't hurt on the dead guy either
