We need Sii or tunci or göküyüm or harpoon to give the proper grammar.
But hoplaya zıplaya ilerledi = skipped ahead. sallaya sallaya yürümek= walking with a sway from side to side. isteye isteye = willingly. So I read istemeye istemeye as unwillingly.
It does fit with the context (his eyes are drawn to the awful object, even though he doesn´t want to look at it), but I am happy to be corrected by a native speaker!!!!

I think I found it. You were right, MarioninTurkey. It is actually the same gerund as in frozen forms like diye or rasgele , but repeated with the same verb or another one it is productive. I mixed the -me- with infinitive marking.

 Easily done -- I´d still like a native to confirm it, as these are not easy texts you are tackling!
