Prufrock meditations

 He sits and weaves impossibilities
 Memories of passions that could never be.
 Conquests of gals that didn't even know
 He'd come, he'd seen and taken his last bow.
 Wrong moves he made that now must be repaid
 By waves of winces, guilt that can not fade.
 In a lifetime of poorly picked comforts,
 Of miscast malice and wasted efforts
 He now moans and foams into the black void
 That no man who ever breathed could avoid.
 Belittled by riddles he never asked
  He peers into fearful dark that looms, aghast
 At the howl of time racing ever more fast
 As days rush by counting down to his  last
