When The Last Bolshevik Died---A Speculative Fiction
He did not think that objective history
would mock him as a comic travesty,
who could not function with human empathy,
not even a little, not even mediocrely.
He had lived his whole adult life for the Party:
which remained in him alone, like him old and farty.
(Could Lenin, himself, have envisioned it that way?)
Hw died in an obscure old folks' home, on an unremarkable day.
Starward
