Poet Gregory Corso addressing cross atop the Grey Nuns’ Orphanage grotto Kerouac immortalized in book 4 Chapter 1, _Doctor Sax_, a “gigantic pyramid of steps upon which the Cross itself poked phallically up with its poor burden the Son of Man all skewered across it in his Agony and fright – undoubtedly this statue moved in the night.” Lowell, Massachusetts, March 17, 1986.
