The Irony of Ronald Nimkin
There was a time when I would've dutifully
left a note to my mother
pinned to the chest of my corpse swinging in the bathroom.
Then there was a time when I
wouldn't have left a note,
and finally there came a time
when I wouldn't have hanged myself.
Nimkin is a famous character from Philp Roth's "Portnoy's Complaint"
