Dazed
 
  I was stunned by the sound
I forgot reason and jumped to safety
I was followed by a demon
'hold up your head to the light' he said
I said I didn't know
he said that there was nothing in it
I was confused but escaped and found freedom
the soil has missed me
I remained in balance
quite steady
they told me I'd have difficulty in moving
I found my feet and walked
'what kind of vision do you want? '
'I'll er take that one there er, is that alright? '
'yeah, go on, Ill wait here for you'
'I might be awhile'
'that's alright, I'll just sit here and think a bit'
'right, I'll be off then'
I stumbled over the debris
trying to piss
but only striking the ground with my head each time

Brian,
As if Virgil had tossed Dante before they got started, this poem had me laughing, as though even Hell didn't want him treading through its gates.
as always,
Anastasia
