When Ana the Nurse arrived yesterday
to remove Peter’s bandages (perfect incisions said Ana)
she asked if I was Jewish. I said Yes.
So’s my husband Steven Gold she said.
I asked where they met.
The big church in Times Square. He’s
a Jew for Jesus she explained. And do you want
to hear something funny? He still won’t
eat pork or shrimp. But his mother in Brooklyn
who is just a Jew eats everything.
Even lobster.
