Soviet Sex
SOVIET SEX
An old professor, communist and wed,
Had recently been rather emotive:
Turned to his wife one night in their big bed -
I think our love arrangement’s inactive.
I’m sorry if I seem to be restive
But single-spouse is bourgeois, usual.
We should perhaps live in a collective:
No exclusivity residual !
There’s a pretty nurse at the hospital
Who wants to live in with us, (I mean me).
Yes, I think you might like living with Sal :
And our bed is big enough for all three.
Yes, says wife, but bed’s big enough for four:
So let’s include her young husband Igor.
