In any man who dies there dies with him
his first snow and kiss and fight.
It goes with him.
They are left books and bridges
and painted canvas and machinery.
Whose fate is to survive.
But what has gone is also not nothing:
by the rule of the game something has gone.
Not people die but worlds die in them.

Yevgeny Yevtushenko

No, Stalin did not die.
He thinks that death can be fixed.
We removed
him
from the mausoleum.
But how do we remove Stalin
from Stalin's heirs?

Yevgeny Yevtushenko
