some unsolicited advice  
for those who follow suit  
though there are scribes in paradise  
noble enough pursuit  
the poets, they end up in hell  
the circles they describe  
may seem familiar in the tell  
to the beginner scribe  
only because he's seen the works  
has not yet placed the place  
the underworld, it has its perks  
no Mary, full of grace  
no poet can resist its wiles  
begat beget begone  
Faustian bargains bring denials  
stop smiling, devil's spawn
