Love Song Of Alfred Prufrock
In The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock a man is sitting possibly at home in a room or maybe even out side of a ballroom or a parlor trying to decide whether or not to enter. There are many people inside including most likely many pretty woman which we get from the line, "In the room the women come and go Talking of Michelangelo". He is scared that he might not be able to relate with these woman even though he has been to events like this and talked to the woman before. We know this because he thinks, "And i have known the arms already, known them all..." and that he is scared because he thinks, "Is it perfume from a dress that makes me so digress?". Also something that is keeping him out is that he doesn't really like the society within the place and maybe that he even thinks it is a joke because he says throughout the story that there is always time and much of it. However even though he thinks there is time he is worried about being old and what people might say about him and his skinny legs and thinning hair. At the end of the poem he is still trying to make a decision.
