Uncanny and dream-like, “The Hollow Men”, by T. S. Eliot, describes a desolate world, populated by empty, defeated people.

TheSpineView Melancholy! Good choice! 3y
TiredLibrarian I love this poem (and also The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock). And this is so sadly apt in light of the Afghanistan debacle. 💔

#Hollow

You will be hollow. We shall squeeze you empty, and then we shall fill you with ourselves.

George Orwell, 1984

The Hollow Men | T.S. Eliot

“The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
 In this valley of dying stars
 In this #hollow valley
 This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms
   
In this last of meeting places
We grope together
And avoid speech
Gathered on this beach of the tumid river
   
Sightless, unless
The eyes reappear
As the perpetual star
Multifoliate rose
Of death's twilight kingdom
The hope only
Of empty men.”
