Lenin Rests

By Walter Jones

Lenin is our captain

Carve his name with pride

Chiselled deep into a wall

By the many who have died.

Wake up! Wake up Vlad!

You are too long dead

Your tomb is now a stock exchange

And Yeltsin is in your bed.

The wall wears your name

Graffiti shrill and clear

Only by destroying it

Bolshevik

By

Bolshevik

Will it disappear.

From GLW issue 158
