Premium Member Dante's Divine Comedy Translation Canto Ix
That color vileness painted on my face
When coming back my duke to me I saw 
His new squeezing inside much more took place.

He heedful stopped as man hearing to draw;
Because his eye could not reach much far more
Through the black air and too for the...

She’s still; an interlude in solitude.
Twilight mournful, his voice ghostly distant,
introspection.., meditation imbued,
she sits alone, bitter-sweet existent.

Lamentations she weeps in glissando.
Cacophony!  Consciously in discord,
love reminisce, arpeggio tempo,

Bethought bliss, wedded they waltzed plucking notes,
of musical blues and exotic spiced scents…

Ticktock, ticktock, the clock
She dreamed of love a lot.

From China to Bangkok,
Wind brought the storms mascot.

The devil's charms besought.

Spatial Relation
Beyond the time I bethought thy ambiguity
With you I aspire the longanimity
Beyond the prophecy there crests thy conceivability
With you I cognize the viability.
 
Beyond thy persuasion I bechanced your propinquity
With you I behold the emotionality
Beyond the state of elated bliss there prehends thy fidelity
With you...

Dead To the World Wide Web
(any resemblance to the following and 
living persons iz purely coincidental)

Family, friends, and
     strangers didst weep
when my brutally
     murdered gagged and
     bound distended corpse
     put to eternal sleep
unbeknownst to...
