Retaining a long poem

For just over two months I've been memorizing The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot. It's 433 lines long and I finished about a week ago. Since then I've been reciting it every morning to keep it in my head, it takes about 20 minutes.

I'd like to move on so I can learn something else but I don't want to forget The Waste Land, how often do you think I should be revisiting it to retain the poem? Once a week? Once a month? Every other day?
