I flick the pages, wonder
if a tour of Hell with Virgil
as a guide would go down well.
A circle every day, full board,
surprise old friends and chat;
there’s nothing wrong with that.
And all that suffering and shit!
Better than a thousand sermons.
Yes, a trip into the depths
would do us sinners good, provide
some heat on February days,
then reconnect with our en suites
and go about our earthly ways.

An educational holiday flight to the Underworld – I’m relieved to note there appears to be a return ticket! Perhaps inspired by my encounter with the Oracle?
