-The port of Vanino-
last part of the poetry of the Gulag of Kolyma
Cursed are you, Kolyma,

Called the planet – marvel.

For the ladder you descended there,

From where there was no return.

Three hundred miles of taiga,

Where only beasts live.

Where vehicles do not go,

And the deer stumble as they drag themselves.

I know that you do not wait for me,

You do not even read my letters.

You will not come to meet me,

Or you will come without recognizing me,

I fear.
