HEY:)

85 is the lucky number according to the man.. but............

necessarily the number wasn't really lucky since the prediction does eventually come true before it goes horribly wrong. so nobody can really say that this number is entirely lucky.

Answer:

The dreariness of the speaker’s life away from Innisfree.

Explanation:

The lines 'While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart’s core' refer to a feeling of closeness to and remembrance of a place dear to the speaker’s heart. There is an implicit sense of removal, of physical distance, contrasted to an emotional proximity.

So we know it reflects his life away from the idyllic Innisfree. Futhermore, the general tone of the phrase, the depiction of the pavements' colour (rather a dull one), appear to suggest a certain general dreariness.

The number doubles every month so it'd be 32 in May, 64 in June, 128 in July, 256 in August, 512 in in September, 1024 in October, 2048 in November and 4096 in December! Adding that all together will equal 8190, I believe.
