We’re reading the Inferno once again
For book club. We have read it twice before.
Though two more books had come from Dante’s pen,
We stick with Hell, the subject we adore.
That book on Purgatory many doubt
And Paradise, let’s face it, is a bore.
Yet Hell feels so delightful, all about
The kinds of people we have known in life,
Landing poetic pokes on several snouts.
