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
