Inferno, Part 2: Rainbow

Prince-of-Earth realm narrates his journey under the Devil's eye to the 9th-Circle (of Hell) for 3-aspects evaluations, in this trilogy-adaptation of Dante's 'shadowlands' work.

My very self-important late-Summer Saturday 3-part adaptation of Dante's Inferno. Thanks for reading!

I found myself awakening from a deep dream-sleep 'examination' of that Ninth Circle of Hell, in the Inferno, with Satan (the Devil!) as my adjectives-guide, having explored some understanding of some hyperbole but with cleats concerning the writhing-motion of that circle of that abysmal place; and now I was set (once-more!) to explore the very-special 2nd-aspect of that circle, under the sphere-dominion of Satan (the Devil!), the aspect of lust-ink, as an Earthling social media culture 'prince' of masked ('scarecrow') visage. What would Satan reveal (or demand)...Selfie-like?

SATAN: I show you now the aspect of lust, and of its ink of the heart/bones, fool.

ME: Well, I can see some hologram-'line' of my planet's cinema-culture of the Ego.

SATAN: You can see therefore, this 2nd-aspect of (my) Ninth-Circle is body-arts!

ME: That it is, and it's a 'Rainbow' muse-invocation for politics gone astral, Devil?

SATAN: You judge with grammar this aspect of lust-ink in this (Ninth) Circle, man!

ME: I suppose the task for hyperbole-ink here concerns the body's etch, Devil.

SATAN: Selfie-like (for Heaven/Hell).

The Devil (Satan) did show me in this 2nd dream-sleep 'examination' of that (Ninth) Circle of Hell, in that abysmal Inferno of 'negotiated' consciousness-motion, that very-special 2nd-aspect called lust-ink; and through this window did I behold the 'qualia' of etches of the mind's image of the body, of Earthling concerns and of vanity for decisions-distances, for outcomes/physiology (for leviathan/uncertainty!). I was shown a glimpse of 'normal' Earth-realm activity, of the words of an Earthling man, a Wall-Street investor, young and Ivy League educated, who'd been etching/sketching about Xmas-consumerism parodies, complete with a stick-figure 'avatar' doodle (Evil Elf) through which he'd cast himself as his own Selfie-age 'prince' of black-and-white (or colored!) readings of fortune...blended inconveniently with humor. Surely, this was some lifestyle-plum of analogy for lust-ink (for the Ego!).

Once-more I awoke (safely/sound/sane) from my dream-sleep 'examination' of the Ninth-Circle of Hell, the Inferno, with adjective-guide work by Satan (the Devil!) to wonder what the next-aspect would be for my 'scholarship-adjective' for Earth-realm understanding (ok). I had now performed study of the 1st-two aspects with the Devil in the Inferno, that of writhing-motion and lust-ink and now prepared myself (emotionally) to question 'things' about the 3rd-aspect Satan described/defined...that of goal risk (perhaps for democracy betrayals!). I again enjoyed some 21st-Century world-exchanges 'reflection' culinary-treat (Indian) bread for a hospitality-feeling of respite and continued to think this knightly exploration of the Ninth-Circle would yield my expression of Selfie-jitters.
