Some context to start you off. T.S Eliot regarded as a poet who writes about loneliness,
boredom, and emptiness around the 20th century. He began to predict more issues about
pessimism after the First World War. He frustrated himself and pessimists about the future lives
that people would have later. The poem consists of some symbols; water, music and singing,
and the fisher king. Those portray some meaning–water symbolized both life and death. He
tried to explain to the reader that water can both harm and bring some luck as well. Water can
both help for restoring life, but also lead to drowning and death, like what the character name
Phlebas the sailor from The Waste Land.
