I can’t help but to agree with all of your thoughts on the wasteland. This poem actually depresses me. To the people in this poem, I am nothing anymore. My life feels just as fragmented as the poem. I’ve never been more depressed and feel so useless to humanity. The poem is basically a complete destruction of nature and all that I represent. I don’t understand why we can’t go back to old times when there wasn’t all of this atrocity and desolation. I do agree that the descriptions of nature were easy to depict but wouldn’t you rather have the real thing instead of this clouded version of nature and goodness. I know that I would. We shouldn’t waste anymore of our precious time reading this nonsense and get back to reality. I feel that there is too much substance to these lines and not enough explanation. I like the simplicity of things and not constantly having to question what is going on. You say you feel that everything should have an answer but I feel that I should be the answer to everything. I’m outraged because nobody believes in me anymore. I do agree that I always feel lost as well when reading these poems.
