No go-carts in hell
Only Ferraris
But there are no open roads
Only curved dirt tracks.
No angel on earth
Lacks in wisdom above,
Yet fallen spirits abound here,
With will, wise, but without love.
The demons’ grandeur
Didn’t diminish
And in earthly exile they
Didn’t depart God.
The resurrected
Body, Satan won’t know,
Except the shameful flesh that
Keeps him company below.

- Comment from author about the poem: Paradoxically, it is believed that all resurrected human bodies will be resurrected physical bodies, both those destined for heaven and those destined for hell. A resurrected, physical body of flesh in hell, rather than a glorified body, will be a shameful body, or so teaches Father Mike in his Catechism in a Day class on the Hallow app (in his CCC 325-330 segment). I can only imagine, a physical, resurrected fleshy body in hell is still a body built like a Ferrari only without the open roads to reach its full potential, the potential for which it was originally created to be, in everlasting love with God. Conversely, the fallen angels, we know from scripture, suffered no loss in the beauty of their incomprehensible intellects; “glorified” intellects if you will, but since fallen, soaring but constrained intellectual beings incapable of love for God and His creatures. “Bellow” assuming the popular cultural understanding of Hell as a “place” located below the “place” of Heaven.
