            It is not a silly question or a useless one, to ask WHY

            TS Eliot is an important - to whom - poet.

            Is he a treasure of the English language?  Why?

            Or just a mystificator?

            What is your answer to the question Why?

             James Joyce wrote - using Ezra Pound's voice

             FW 191.12-13   (I pose you know why possum hides is cause he haint the nogumtreeumption)

            And Pound said about Eliot - in the same kind of voice -

            "An how you gwine ter keep deh Possum in his feedbox when I brings in deh Chinas and
            blackmen? He won't laak fer to see no Chinas and blackmen in a buk bout Kulture"
