Why the surrealistic/realistic? narrator?


First of all I'm still on season 1,if that's not apparent. Couldn't we just have flashbacks? A little mystery never hurts but HBO needs some kind of explanation for his existence, and soon. His narration is too 'cool' to be cool and the poetic references are infantile.Does he really 'exist' in the common context of the word? Can't wait to see why this guy is around,why he's ROTATING for god's sake's and when he looks up---why he has a transparent window to see inmates from below.
