Yet, his work has stood the test of time and will continue to do so, I think. I like Prufrock and have enjoyed The Wasteland as well. Thanks for posting. We need to be reminded of these classic works.

Liberate the secluded watercolors
waving their curled edges
sending smoke signals from eons
of dust twirling swear words
buried under stacked manuscripts

Bring forth the bloom of weeping
tint, hue and primordial pizzazz
the fertile tracks of stray passion
splash fresh eyes with your
Rorschach of cryptic magic

All that angst about emptiness. All that despair. And he was so young when he wrote these poems. I don’t know that Eliot or Prufrock ever got to see the rainbow feathers that may curve round the side of one’s head. In NM hollow hills sometimes hold bombs, the source of other waste lands.Don’t forget, tomorrow is Guy Fawkes Day. Dia de Los Muertos and Marigold Parade this Sunday. Wear your feathered headdress.. . ’tis the season.
