"Un montón de imágenes rotas donde el sol golpea"
— T. S. Eliot
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine a junkyard filled with pieces of old, shattered things. The sun is shining down hard on these broken bits, making it really bright and hot, but the heap itself remains a mess. Just like this, when our thoughts and memories are scattered and fragmented, even good things like new ideas or happiness (symbolized by the sun) don't seem to make sense or bring order. For example, if you're trying to study for an exam but your mind is jumping from worry to distraction and back, all the useful information you're trying to remember feels jumbled and hard to grasp. To fix this, you might clean up those "broken images" by organizing your thoughts and focusing on one thing at a time, just like how you'd sort through the junkyard to find and fix useful items. This way, the sunlight (or positive things in your life) can truly shine and make a clear impact.
