Ash Wednesday


This is a link to a poem by T.S. Eliot (the T.S. stands for Thomas Stearns in case you were wondering...) that I read every year on Ash Wednesday.

It's the first poem he wrote after converting to Christianity and delves into the struggles that exist between despair and hope.

I figured he would do a much better job describing Ash Wednesday than myself. After all, I've never won a Nobel Prize...not yet anyways.



It's a pretty long poem, ergo great distraction from hunger if you're fasting.
