A chapter in the book People

Comrade Conrad

by Bill Schott


Comrade Conrad, Communist

used to pound men with his fists

broke some rules and then some wrists

in the grand old Union of Soviet Socialists ...Republic


Smiling like a Katzenjammer

He'd smash men's toes with a sledge hammer

then throw them in the Russian slammer

because they screamed a lot and walked funny


Conrad lived through czar and Stalin

Khrushchev, detente, wall-a-fallin'

then he died and moved to 'Helland'

the Netherworld, where he is a  javelin 
catcher




The Netherlands is referred to as Holland. So I used that same idea to denote the Netherworld.
