a tribute ekphrasis on T S Eliot Gerontion

deliberations
          overheard
in a decayed house
by
   an
      old
           man
             with his thoughts
in
  a
     darkened
              room
whispering
    observations
upon
the past
interim
       conclusions
honestly
expressed
        from
a
  sleepy
      corner
       of
        memory
