the echo, after each line, is horrible. the music is a bad distraction, and the whole is a mess.

@SailingCartagena compliment: Politely congratulate or praise (someone) for something. Complement: Add to (something) in a way that enhances or improves it; make perfect.
Surely you intended the latter?

My sun shall rise in the east
So shall my heart be at peace
And if youre asking me when
Ill say it starts at the end

@chitchant Totally agree. One would hope words as powerful as Eliot's could stand alone without the help of music to set a mood. A neat project, though.
-
Yhe words are so important and I can barely understand them--especially at the beginning. But thank you for your contribution.

To the people who find Eliot's poetry "boring", I say "fine". Find other poetry you like or stick to prose. Just don't come here and criticize something you're wholly incapable of either understanding or appreciating. You only paint yourself as a philistine, someone to be pitied for what you don't see and feel and never will see and feel.

@Brideshead09 Well thank fuck for that.
-
Excellent.

@MickeyLove01 I grow bored.

@Brideshead09 I find it very sad that someone like you cannot accept the fact that he/she is wrong. I suggest you buy a pet rabbit.

I agree with you, but then I am an old English teacher with an appreciation of the words alone. The images do compliment the circular theme within the work.
I wonder what Eliot would have made of the piece, he with his monotone renditions.

I do like the narrator's voice, but the 'music' is overwhelming the text.
Poetry stands on its own.
