You know there are times when you are reading a book or watching a movie when, in a moment of epiphany, you realize that one of the characters is, uh, You.
Sometimes it's good... Sometimes it isn't exactly an edifying thing to find out about yourself. I had one yesterday. This would have been a blog entry if I had T.S. Elliot's gifts as a poet. Does everybody feel the same way when reading the poem or is it just me?
In one of the numerous analyses of this poem online, these verses were described as unfeeling. I couldn't disagree to anything more. This poem is the core of my being and describes my emotional state to the period and the comma.
