Review for Virginia - by T. S. Eliot

Apocrapha
of T.S. Eliot

II. VIRGINIA

Red river, red river,
Slow flow heat is silence
No will is still as a river trust banked erosion
Still, Will heat move, do not move the hysteria
Only through the mocking-bird Uriah Heap made in Spring
Heard once? Still hills Audition failed God’s Lighting and Thunder
Wait. Gates wait. Purple trees, chicken chokers
White trees, John Birch, pail face, wait, wait,
Pale Face, Delay, decay. Living, living,
Never moving. Ever moving
Iron Curtain of America thoughts came with me
And go with me:
Red river, James, Rwanda,river, river.
