Summary

Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Russian, edited and annotated by Jerome Katsell and Stanislav Shvabrin.

Mirrors reflect each other,
Mutually distorting their reflections.

I believe not in the invincibility of evil,
But only in the unavoidability of defeat.

Not in the music that burned my life,
But in the ash left from the burning.
