12-20 hrs: See resonance from Monday

I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
....
The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, T.S. Eliot
================== and then =============
Poem in Memoriam T. S Eliot, Adrian Henry
I'd been out the night before & hadn't seen the papers or the telly
& next day in a cafe someone told me you had died
....
and I did not know what to feel

For years I measured out my life with your coffeespoons
