Oh this is SO COOL, Pablo. I have chills as I type and goosebumps...and it's not Covid! It's awe. At the beauty of Eliot's words and the imagery/message. I'm going to copy them into a file and memorize them.

Over the years, I've memorized hundreds of poems - I've forgotten many but it was the PROCESS of memorizing that I found astonishing. It taught me truths...and it taught me the craftsmanship of poetry.

The first poem I ever memorized is a line started by a poet who died before finishing it. John O'Donohue. I've never forgotten it: "I would love to live like a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding."

Cool, huh! Thanks again for the Eliot...and yay you liked Caroline.
