The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock

" I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;"

   This quote in T.S Eliot's  poem represents the routine in Prufrock's life and how it has caused him depression to the point that he feels worthless. His routine that has constituted his living for nothing day by day brings Prufrock down to the epicenter of longing, insecurity, and timidness. This routine of disappointment and false hope for the attainment of love has left him feeling like nothing as he has nothing. Amongst such a situation and state of mind; one can determine that Prufrock has no sense of influence (in his view) to anything that could lead him to happiness, causing him to feel he has no justice in life.
