The Question: Whom does the Grail serve?

I sat upon the shore Fishing, with the arid plain behind me Shall I at least set my lands in order?

What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man,

You cannot say, or guess, for you know only

A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,

And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,

And the dry stone no sound of water.

“The poet’s artist’s mind,” according to Eliot,

“is in fact a receptacle for seizing and storing up numberless feelings, phrases, images, which remain there until all the particles which can unite to form a new compound are present together.”
