Eliot is unironically easy to understand but normies always pretend he’s some arcane knowledge or deep shit you can’t wrap your head around. I just read The Hollow Men and it’s probably so intuitive I wouldn’t have to explain much of it to a 15 year old.

He includes his own notations to explain this which take maybe five minutes to read on top of the existing fifteen for the poem itself.

>>25314189
most of his poems are easy, obviously that one isn't

>>25314158
what if someone folded a vagina in half and then poked a penis through it?

Spiderman 2 is one of the few capeshit films that's actually kinda good. But no, namedropping modernist poets was by no means the norm for them back then.
