The Inferno for Dummies: A Verse Review
Some Italians I hate are dead. Yay.
Also, in hell. God rocks without a doubt.
Dead Virgil saved me when I lost my way,
Protected me from liars, sodomites,
And held bass-ackward simonists at bay,
As well as minotaurs and heads that bite.
The damned expound, are cleaved; they stink and shout.
At length, we scaled corrupted Satan's bits.
My foes are damned, while I have clambered out.
