The Lush Sin of h.a.m.

honeyboy andrew meade read Prufrock
stem to stern, like a pilot reads wind –
Winds up seeing therein a post-rock
Sub-genre scene. So, he buys in

To test a thesis and see whether Eliot means
To display one rock upon another, until the racket
enriches the tone-deaf, then deals a black ace to
the knave in the nave, where plain folk sing mass.

Alternately, he allows it’s not unlikely that our good trans –
Atlantic man shows, merely, a cast of lynx in spanx.
