About Prufrock

Extracts from the poem:

In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo.

And indeed there will be time
To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”

*****

For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons...

*****

I grow old ... I grow old ...
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.
