Dante’s ‘skinny bitches, well trained and obedient’ corner on the 2009 Hezbollah get out the vote campaign


'I dreamed of this one here as Lord
and huntsman, pursing the wolf
and the cubs up the mountain
(which blocks the sight of Lucca
from the Pisans).

And skinny bitches, well trained
and obedient; he had out in front
as leaders of the pack Gualandi
with Sismondi and Lanfranchi.

A short run, and the father with
his sons Seemed to grow tired, and
then I thought I saw Long fangs
sunk deep into their sides, ripped
open' Inferno xxxiii
