Jonathan Locke Hart explores in a contemporary context the divine and human comedy, taking his inspiration from Dante, but also making and questioning poetry in a world where light shines "on abandoned tires, industrial/ Junk devoid of allegory" and in a world that is and is not real. This poetry is an exploration of mind, body and soul in an industrial and technological world that has changed so much since the great mythological worlds made by poets as great as Dante and Shakespeare. But the poem moves from this "sullen industrial waste" and fires of existential hell through the in-between and purgatorial state to one of hope and light. All this is within and without the contemporary world./ A modern day meditation on the inferno, purgatorio and paradisio of our world. Fire (hell) Between (purgatory) Light (heaven).
