If that name sounds familiar, it was also a word uttered in a walkie talkie in Kevin’s dream sequence last week, plus there was a reference to “Cairo” in the National Geographic magazine that Kevin’s Dad gave him last week. But before we break it down as it pertains to the episode, let’s first note that “Cairo,” the name of the episode, is where much of the action took place this week.
It’s the second stanza there that Patti recites to Kevin in the final minutes of “Cairo,” this week’s stunning episode of Damon Lindelof’s The Leftovers. Over my heart, and your hair fall over my breast,ĭrowning love’s lonely hour in deep twilight of rest,Īnd hiding their tossing manes and their tumultuous feet. The Horses of Disaster plunge in the heavy clay:īeloved, let your eyes half close, and your heart beat O vanity of Sleep, Hope, Dream, endless Desire, The South is pouring down roses of crimson fire: The West weeps in pale dew and sighs passing away, The East her hidden joy before the morning break, The North unfolds above them clinging, creeping night, Their hoofs heavy with tumult, their eyes glimmering white HEAR the Shadowy Horses, their long manes a-shake, Michael Robartes Bids his Beloved be at Peace, by WB Yeats
