I have this beautiful poem by T. S. Eliot. what I ask you best forum's members ever is to discuss it, and in which age it was written (abuot its age characteristics) and the poet biography. Plea, help your newly arrived member. this is the poem
Hysteria
BY T. S. ELIOT (THOMAS STEARNS ELIOT)

As she laughed I was aware of becoming involved
in her laughter and being part of it, until her
teeth were only accidental stars with a talent
for squad-drill. I was drawn in by short gasps,
inhaled at each momentary recovery, lost finally
in the dark caverns of her throat, bruised by
the ripple of unseen muscles. An elderly waiter
with trembling hands was hurriedly spreading
a pink and white checked cloth over the rusty
green iron table, saying: "If the lady and
gentleman wish to take their tea in the garden,
if the lady and gentleman wish to take their
tea in the garden ..." I decided that if the
shaking of her breasts could be stopped, some of
the fragments of the afternoon might be collected,
and I concentrated my attention with careful
subtlety to this end.

I think it's safe to respond now... Perhaps....

I just wanted to note something that is essentially very simple, but I thought
it to be worth sharing the observation. Anyone who possess the Faber and
Faber copy of Eliot's collected poems may observe that in its presentation
the word 'accidental' is excised in two - one part of the word is at the very right of
the page, the other part at the very left. Or, if you like, we could say it was the
poet's use of enjambment. At any rate, we see something like this:

...Until her teeth were only acci-
dental stars with a talent for squad-rill.


Note the 'dental'. This could have been consciously deliberated by Eliot, or, perhaps,
acci-dental... But I found it quite ingenious, that division of the word at such an
apt place, while the rest of the poem maintains its structure.
