'The Hollow Men'... refers to the intellectuals who thought they'd conquered nature. They damned it up and used its waters to irrigate the wastelands.

She's deliberately afflicting mankind with the jitters. Nature's proving that she can't be beaten, not by the likes of us. She's taking the world away from the intellectuals and giving it back to the apes
