Recommended by Andrew Sullivan here. Midcentury use of form at its best; curiously, both metre and rhyme announce themselves more explicitly as the poem continues. "Frowsty"="fusty" (OED) from Old French frouste, ruinous, decayed. Usages like that, plus the form, make one want to read metapoetically.
