“One of the striking things about [T.S. Eliot’s] ‘The Waste Land’ [...] is that it tends to shift decorum in every line. Of course, the possibility that a poem could look a different way in every consecutive line turned out to be a tremendously powerful tool for composition. [...] So I was coming from there, and, indeed, from a much more general context, part of which had recognized as an opposition violent shifts in decorum.” - Hollis Frampton
