Gulaged brothers fall
or a low rent Guernica,
where no horses are killed,
only humans.
Gulaged brothers fall
for a Jewish Goddess
but the camp guardians

treat her ungodly.
All in a book by a Brit,
surnamed famous,

about thousands encamped
in an Arctic hovel.

and diurnal.
One can survive
but not the others
yet Russia is
the mother of mothers
Whose children are
yet Russia is
the mother of mothers
Whose children are
naturally brawlin'
under the post-war
reign of Stalin.
