First he went to hell, where all the tormented souls
were sitting at tables laden with food,
yet they were starving and howling with hunger.
Each soul had a spoon, but the spoons were so long
that they couldn't get them into their mouths.
Their frustration was their torment.
And in heaven?
In heaven, to his amazement,
the man found the souls of the blessed
sitting at similar tables laden with food,
but they were all fed and contented.
Each had a spoon and the spoons were just as long as the spoons in hell,
but they were able to eat all they needed
because they were feeding each other.
