But if a magic lantern threw the nerves in patterns on a screen, - TopicsExpress



          

But if a magic lantern threw the nerves in patterns on a screen, Would it have been worthwhile, If one settling a pillow or throwing off a shawl, And turning toward the window should say: That is not it at all, That is not what I meant, at all.....A woman drew her long black hair out tight, And fiddled whisper music on those strings, And bats with baby faces in the violet light, Whistled and beat their wings, And crawled head downwards down a blackened wall, And upside down in air were towers, Tolling reminiscent bells that kept the hours, And voices singing out of empty cisterns and exhausted wells.... T S Eliot....The Wasteland
