We are the hollow men*

We are the stuffed men

Leaning together

Headpiece filled with straw.

Alas!

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Our dried voices, when

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">We whisper together

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Are quiet and meaningless

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">As wind in dry grass

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Or rats' feet over broken glass

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In our dry cellar

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Shape without form, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">shade without colour,

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Paralysed force, gesture without motion;

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Those who have crossed[|*]

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom*

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Remember us-if at all-not as lost

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Violent souls, but only

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">As the hollow men

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">The stuffed men.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">II

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Eyes I dare not meet in dreams

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In death's dream kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">These do not appear:

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">There, the eyes are

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Sunlight on a broken column

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">There, is a tree swinging

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And voices are <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In the wind's singing

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">More distant and more solemn

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Than a fading star.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Let me be no nearer

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In death's dream kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Let me also wear

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Such deliberate disguises

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In a field

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Behaving as the wind behaves

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">No nearer-

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Not that final meeting

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In the twilight kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">III

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This is the dead land

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This is cactus land

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Here the stone images

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Are raised, here they receive <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">The supplication of a dead man's hand[|*]

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Under the twinkle of a fading star

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">//Is it like this//

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In death's other kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Waking alone

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">At the hour when we are

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Trembling with tenderness

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Lips that would kiss

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Form prayers to broken stone.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">IV

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">The eyes are not here

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">There are no eyes here

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In this valley of dying stars

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In this hollow valley

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">In this last of meeting places

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">We grope together

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And avoid speech

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Gathered on this beach of the tumid river

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Sightless, unless

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">The eyes reappear

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">As the perpetual star

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Multifoliate rose[|*]

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Of death's twilight kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">The hope only

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Of empty men.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">V

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Here we go round the prickly pear*

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Prickly pear prickly pear

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Here we go round the prickly pear

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">At five o'clock in the morning.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the idea

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the reality

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the motion

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the act

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Falls the Shadow

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">For Thine is the Kingdom*

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the conception

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the creation

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the emotion

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the response

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Falls the Shadow

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Life is very long

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the desire

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the spasm

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the potency

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the existence

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Between the essence <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">And the descent

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Falls the Shadow

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">For Thine is the Kingdom

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">For Thine is

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Life is long

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">For Thine is the...

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This is the way the world ends

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This is the way the world ends

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">This is the way the world ends

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">Not with a bang

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">but a whimper.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 35px; text-align: left;">
