Thomas Eliot works multiple themes in the poem, however in general, his usage of imagery mainly represents ageing and decay. In the lines "When the evening is spread out against the sky / Like a patient etherized upon a table", the phrases like "sawdust restaurants" and "cheap hotels," the yellow fog, and the afternoon "Asleep...tired... or it malingers", represent decay. The character's concerns about his hair and teeth which is mentioned in the lines "Combing the white hair of the waves blown back / When the wind blows the water white and black," show the problems about aging.

The speaker often refers to images having to do with the city. He refers to many locations and features of architecture that are present in cities, such as "one-night cheap hotels," "chimneys," "doorways and sprinkled streets," et cetera. He also personifies many things, including fog, the evening, and time. Hope this helps.

Explanation:

Vinny slipped, and dropped his towel in the mud. He

picked it up and tried to brush it off, but instead smeared

the mud spot around until the towel resembled something

someone’s dog had slept on. “Tst,” he said.

Joe-Boy, hiking down just behind him, laughed. “Hey,

Vinny, just think, that kid walked where you walking.”

“Shuddup,” Vinny said.

“You prob’ly stepping right where his foot was.”

Vinny moved to the edge of the trail, where the ravine fell

through a twisted jungle of gnarly trees and underbrush to the

stream far below. He could see Starlene and Mo farther ahead,

their heads bobbing as they walked, both almost down to the

pond where the boy had died.

“Hey,” Joe-Boy went on, “maybe you going be the one to

find his body.”

“You don’t cut it out, Joe-Boy, I going . . . I going . . . ”

“What, cry?”

Vinny scowled. Sometimes Joe-Boy was a big fat babooze.

They slid down the trail. Mud oozed between Vinny’s

toes. He grabbed at roots and branches to keep from falling.

Mo and Starlene were out of sight now, the trail ahead having

cut back.

Joe-Boy said, “You going jump in the water and go down

and your hand going touch his face, stuck under the rocks.

Ha ha ha . . . a ha ha ha!”

Vinny winced. He didn’t want to be here. It was too soon,

way too soon. Two weeks and one day.

He saw a footprint in the mud and stepped around it.

The dead boy had jumped and had never come back up.

Four search and rescue divers hunted for two days straight

and never found him. Not a trace. Gave Vinny the creeps. It

didn’t make sense. The pond wasn’t that big.

He wondered why it didn’t seem to bother anyone else.

Maybe it did and they just didn’t want to say.

Butchie was the kid’s name. Only fourteen.

Fourteen.

Two weeks and one day ago he was walking down this

trail. Now nobody could find him.

The jungle crushed in, reaching over the trail, and Vinny
