T. S. Eliot: The Hollow Men
Loading...
Uploaded by MyEmptyHouse on Oct 24, 2007
We are the hollow men.
We are the stuffed men.
Shape without form, shade without color.
In death's dream kingdom.
Behaving as the wind behaves.
Waking alone at the hour when we are
trembling with tenderness.
Lips that would kiss form prayers to broken stone.
In this last of meeting places we grope together.
For Thine is the Kingdom.
This is the way the world ends.

Astonishing!

This is a profound combination of music and poetry. I am deeply moved by the words and the music is precisely in sync with the poem. Don't change a thing!

@davidHasselhoff Joyce was Irish. Dunno about Beckett that much but I think he was British. If you're talking about the authors, I mean.

Can someone make a better combination? Love this T.S. Elliot poem, and I find this version whit the Pink Floyd songs behind, really make you want to fall in tears.
