When I was in the hospital
I had a big fat nurse
Who kept looking over my shoulder
At the book I was reading,
“The Brothers Karamazov”
By Gambling Man Fyodor
Dostoevsky
Of Czarist Russia, a Saint,
And in the chapters
called Pro and Con
She kept giggling & insisting
That Pro meant Prophylactic
and Con Contraceptive
In all her laughs & gestures.
Of this Holy Nurse
I learned bed wet
comforts of hot water
and senile satisfaction
“I’ll Take You Home Again Kathleen”
Sang the old white Cancer man
in the corner
when the children guitared
at my footbed
Kolya Krosotkins
of my railroad
55th Chorus
