Answer 2

J. Alfred Prufrock conjures up the image of a man who is struck with anxiety

Step-by-step explanation:

J. Alfred Prufrock is an overthinker just by reading the poem. Through the authors use of the literary element "stream of conciousness" the idea of being trapped and stuck in your thoughts is evident in the poem, in how Prufrock often loses track of his thoughts and overthinks about even small things. The way he thinks shows his anxiety and the way he speaks about himself shows this idea.
