Notes This poem is part of a book-length lyric sequence. This poem considers the ideology of Soviet Russia and the consequences this had for humanitarianism. Specific reference is made to Max Eastman, an American writer who resided in Russia between 1922 and 1924, and who witnessed the power struggle between Leon Trotsky and Joseph Stalin, as well as Stalin’s Great Purge.
