The Yellow Fog

Inspired by The Kid, I decided today was the day I should give Prufrock it's yearly read.

I got twenty lines in and decided I needed to quote this:

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening,
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys,
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night,
Curled once about the house, and fell asleep.

Awesome.
