               Upon Reading Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita

Margarita flying naked over Moscow
She might have caught a cold doing that, you know

A big ol’ cat shooting a Browning Hi-Power
He was certainly amusing for an hour

The Secret Police were like the Keystone Kops
Not to be trusted even with traffic stops

And Pontius Pilate ordering a death
Almost with every other tortured breath

There were two burnings of the Master’s book
But yet at the end someone gave it look

The Master’s book…hmmmm…

I have finished this book; I thoughtfully read it
And I must confess that I just don’t get it
