While set in ancient Rome,:
While set in ancient Rome, this poem spouts a social commentary that extends to modern times. The way people today consume suffering—whether through media sensationalism, war coverage, or social injustice—parallels Nero’s feasts. The poem can be taken as a challenge the reader to consider how contemporary societies still entertain themselves with the suffering of others. By making the horrific appear routine, the poem confronts the dangers of unchecked power and societal complacency. It also asks an unsettling question: how often do people turn a blind eye to cruelty for the sake of their own comfort?
