Answer:
Condescending disrespect.
Explanation:
The word "snicker" is used to talk or refer to an act of scornful, disrespectful half-suppressed laugh. This act of showing a negative attitude is aimed at making the other person feel bad or be disrespected.
In "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", T. S. Eliot talks about the <em>"Eternal footman"</em> snickering at him. Here, the <em>"eternal footman" </em>is death, which Prufrock uses to refer to his irrelevance, for he considers himself unimportant. Here, Prufrock feels that death snickers at him because<em> "[He is] no prophet — and here’s no great matter."</em>
Thus, the correct answer is condescending disrespect.
Metaphors and similes are used to add depth and meaning to the poem, so it looks normal on the surface but when you re-read it you uncover a deeper meaning :)
