EXCELLENT. Piffling matters have kept me away, but it took me no time to follow your lead. The poem was "after" Eliot's "Ash Wednesday." But the mention of Shakespeare reminds me of "The Waste Land Land." (And not randomly.) 

O O O O that Shakespehrian Rag--
It's so elegant
So intelligent

Modifiers that I think apply to TRP's works.

Thanks, Mr. Haney

Page--and,

Happy Thanksgiving to all you Americans out there. Don't forget, You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant ('ceptin' Alice).

  didn't the guy from Paola's hometown - wait, was that her dad? - write a
  poem "after" an Eliot poem?
   
  Fausto Maijstral, yeah, that's the ticket!
