April is the cruelest month  . . .  It's interesting to cut yourself to pieces once in a while  . . . 

My nerves are bad tonight  . . .  Here in death's dream kingdom  . . .  HURRY UP PLEASE

IT'S TIME  . . .  From such chaotic misch-masch potpourri  . . .  Sweet Thames, run softly till I

end my song  . . .  in the horror of the illimitable scream  . . . 
Et, O ces voix d'enfants,

chantant dans la coupole
. . .  waking alone  . . .  At the violet hour  . . .  the intolerable

wrestle with words and meanings  . . .  'Well, now that's done: and I'm glad it's over'  . . . 

huddled between the concrete and the sky  . . .  Wallala leialala  . . .  to spit out all the butt-

ends of my days and ways  . . .  Phlebas the Phoenician, a fortnight dead  . . .  let me be no

nearer  . . .  These fragments I have shored against my ruins  . . . 

Shantih    shantih    shantih
