I'd take Prufrock over the Stolen Child anyday....
Although I like Easter 1916...I think they all have merit
"Here is Belladonna, the lady of the rocks,
The Lady of Situations" works for me (I KNOW THAT'S FROM WASTELAND) 
As well as "An aged man is but a paltry thing"
Eliot was heavily influenced by Yeats
(The Second Coming and the Wasteland are very similar in intent)
and I don't like to cut myself off from either

But I really have a hard time seeing the humor in Prufrock.

And I hate Pound, so at best I be a hypocrite here.

Under this cradle-hood and coverlid
My child sleeps on"--Yeats, A Prayer for My Daughter
