"And I, who stood there looking down intently,
Saw people covered in mud there in the swamp,
All naked, and with anger in their faces.
They struck each other, and not only with their hands,
But with their heads and chests and with their feet,
Biting each other to pieces bit by bit.
The good master said, `Son, now you see
The spirits of those who were overpowered by anger;
And I would also like you to understand
That underneath the water are people sighing;
It is they who make the water bubble on top,
As you can see, whichever way you turn.
Stuck in the slime, they say, `we chose to be sad´
In the sweet air enlivened by the sun,
And our hearts smouldered with a sullen smoke:
Now we are sad instead in this black filth.´
That is the hymn they gurgle down their throats
And cannot even get the words out properly.´"
-Dante, Inferno

Ai sä oot joku uskis vai? :O
No, vähän sitäkin. Luen enkkua yliopistolla, kirjallisuus on aina kiinnostanut.
Ai ai pojat..... tuollainen runoilu ei kuulu miehille.....
Ihan hyvin kuuluu runoilu miehille, niin runojen lukeminen kuin kirjoittaminen.
Minua on aina kiehtonut hyvä ja paha...ja sen olemassaolon taistelu..Ihmisen hyvyys ja pahuus...synti ja syvällinen ajattelu.
