DOSTOYEVSKY

 

He opens the old Gospel according to Matthew

with crooked letters which he carried in the hell

of Siberia. He read to his wife, “I need to be

baptized by you, and do you come to me?”

said he the Saint John the Baptist to Jesus.

But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now;

for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness.”

“You see dear, light a candle, don’t delay me, that

means that I will die but you should remember

I on high love the tsar too, he reigns over everything,

he reigns over everything the informer my brother

Misha asked the henchmen to send me to prison,

but I loved him, I fed him, I made him a literato,

he hated me with the most passionate poison

I ruin you with my illness cut what seems useless...

I loved only the tsar and maybe Christ for the rest

I hated all of them... The end, the end, I sink where

all the tsars stay happy. They all there are waiting

for me and we will go holding hands to the Judgement.

There wasn’t an empire more beautiful, more virgin

than Russia. We all have a single soul.”
