PASSING THROUGH PURGATORY ON THE WAY DOWN TO HELL

To PRC

I think of you

in my frigid loneliness,

in this separation

which gives me

visions of your

scared flesh and the

purgatory I unleashed

upon us; in

your mound

of Venus I

see the lonely isle

Dante ascended

on his path

from Hell to Heaven -

but we,

guided by no Virgil,

but my folly,

are descending

to circles of the damned.
