Prufrock Love Song Tribute

against the sky
           spread out
           corners of evening
days of hands
            of indecision:
revisions
come&go
    in formulated 
                  phrases
days
&
ways
     known to all
     to its crisis
          prayed:
talk
with
      a smile
      of no great
                matter:
overwhelming
     questions
       as patterns
in the mind
       meticulous
          yet obtuse
sing to me
in
  white & 
         black
a
predicament
    evolved
      into
        despair
triviality
       ransacked,
       irony
       conceived
explicit
        experiences
        self-regarding
        sardonic
        self-conscios
inadequately
      revealed:
a sequence
  of
     images
  of
     imagined logic
visions
    of conceit
          failure
            futility
time
indivisible
     inhabited
     by allusions
fulfilled
   by
      sensibility
