The  Blue Package to Stalin by Nikolai Tikhonoff
sorenbarrett said:

Quite a narrative poem told in short bursts like gun fire. The imagery vivid and painted a picture so Russian. The story tragic and harsh like the terrain it ends in meaninglessness typically Russian like that of the Russian writers or Thomas Hardy. Lovely
