The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock by T. S. Eliot
A restless, introspective monologue of a middle-aged man who wanders through a city and his own anxieties, obsessively aware of social rituals, missed opportunities and sexual timidity; mundane urban scenes—fog, streets, and drawing rooms—become symbols of paralysis and creeping age, while sharp, fragmented imagery and ironic self-questioning reveal his fear of judgment and inability to act, capturing modern alienation, regret, and the gap between private desire and public performance.
