The memory throws up high and dry A crowd of twisted things; A twisted branch upon the beach Eaten smooth, and polished As if the world gave up The secret of its skeleton, Stiff and white. A broken spring in a factory yard, Rust that clings to the form that the strength has left Hard and curled and ready to snap. —“Rhapsody on a Windy Night,” T. S.

Explanation:

-He sees the world through images of death.

-He notices destruction around him.

"A broken spring in a factory yard..." In this poem, much of his imagery is focused on things, once alive and active, that now lie broken and useless.

Hard and curled and ready to snap."
