As I walked back into the room
It seemed that the ancient Greek underworld had,
To put quite lightly,
Broken loose.

There was three-headed Cerberus
Snarling away in the corner.
The howling of souls echoed about the room.

But
There were no pits of fire.
No source of misery.
My advice to those creatures is:
Quiet down,
And the rest of us
Try to learn.
