The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock
(Eliot, TS)
The poem begins with the invitation--- lets go there you and I wile the citys stretched out against the sky like a patient on some etherized table --- it ges into imagery of claws dragging along the floors of cheap sawdust hotels. The theme of ruin present in The Wasteland, also characterizes much of Prufrock. In The LOVE SONG OF J ALFRED PRUFROCK, TS Eliot tells the story of a lonely old man who counts his days in coffee spoons-- he laments the ending of his life and hates never being loved. He wears his pants with the legs rolled (the style of youth of his period). He hears Mermaids laughing on the beach at the end of the poem and doesnt think they will talk with him. Hes a sad old man. www. valiantdeath.com ---- for wonderful experimental music/ art/ zines
