Gary Thompson from the Music by Computer yahoo list (aka Johnny Pumphandle) remixed me version 2 of Sweeny's Agony - and blew me away - by toning down the volume he brought out a lot more soul in my opinion. I love it - and I hope you do too.

HYSTERIA
poem by: T.S. Eliot (1888-1965)
As she laughed I was aware of becoming involved
in her laughter and being part of it, until her
teeth were only accidental stars with a talent
for squad-drill. I was drawn in by short gasps…

Sketch of the ripple of unseen muscles. Tea for two who wish to take their tea in the garden. Concentrating of attention with careful
subtlety to this end. I like that.

Ha! Very clever! I love the bass lick and vox... and I'm very proud to be a part of your first accoustic recording of cornet, flute and harmonica. Historic indeed.
And what an interesting poem. I read up on it. Some highlights:
With "Hysteria" Eliot created an unconventional poetic diction by using verse rhythms that were based on the cadences of speech rather than poetic structure.
It is possible that the laughter may be a product of the woman’s ‘hysteria’, but it is more likely that the title applies to the narrator’s reaction to that laughter. “As she laughed,†he begins, “I was aware of becoming involved in her laughter and being part of it.†He begins to feel as though he has physically become the laughter he is observing."
"The narrator’s goal is to collect pieces of the details he was able to capture in order to rebuild a coherent reality. The reader is left somewhat skeptical of this goal, however, because of the narrator’s doubtful language. “If†the woman’s breasts “could†be stopped, “some†fragments “might†be collected. Each line contains two distinct words of uncertainty, and by the end we are not sure that the narrator’s hysteria can be cured.

As can happen when you listen to sometime a million times over your mind and ears start accepting things that later you wish you had not. This is a (much better imho) revision thanks to the urging of Gary from the music by computer list.
